賽馬會文化保育領袖計劃
Jockey Club Cultural Heritage Leadership Project
LPL是甚麼?
LPL是學 · 玩 · 導(Learn · Play · Lead)。我們向活出不凡的人學習,我們向自己學習;我們玩樂人生,玩得有創意;我們領導自己,領導他人。
學 · 玩 · 導 是「賽馬會文化保育領袖計劃」的宗旨。這項計劃由香港賽馬會慈善信託基金捐助。
我們深信,文化遺產並不限於一磚一瓦的實體建築物之保育與紀錄,也關乎在此生活的人們的文化記憶和生活經驗。文化遺產,正是構築我城的精髓。
我們認為,文化遺產的精華正在於人的生命故事。我們的故事便是香港的故事。有很多故事正待我們發掘、聆聽和理解,有的主人翁充滿人生經歷,有的在其專業領域成就甚豐,更多的是無名英雄,在其崗位繼續默默工作。
計劃的核心價值:
分享-我們相信即使文化和信仰不同,在這個地球上,人與人是緊緊相扣,彼此應當分享看法。
自由-我們相信自由是與生俱來。我們有選擇生活方式的自由,以及思考的自由想自己所想。人人皆是。
溝通-我們相信溝通是打破隔膜的不二法門。
啟發-我們相信生活充滿奇蹟,讓我們的靈感源源不絶。
愛-我們相信這愛是宇宙的原動力,它令一切變得美好,讓我們不再懼怕。
這項計劃是從兩大部分察看藝穗會這個文化基地:
1. 讓藝穗會自說自話
藝穗會前身是前牛奶公司儲存冰塊的倉庫,建造至今已有超過一百年的歷史。自1983年,藝穗會逐步轉型為充滿活力的當代藝術中心。此後,藝穗會精心修復會址,讓此歷史建築物重添活力,向這座見證香港劃時代變遷的一級歷史古跡致敬。我們有幸得到一批保育人士和建築師為是次翻新工程出謀獻策,他們不但提供專業意見,也連結歷史建築修復、地方歷史與文化記憶三者的關係。
2. 學 · 玩 · 導
「學 · 玩 · 導」是這個計劃的核心。透過「學」,我們認識傑出人物的處事哲學和人生智慧,了解他們如何活出不凡;透過「玩」,我們跳脫既定的思考框框,用創意和玩樂人生的態度閱讀和解決生活上的問題;透過「導」,我們以他山之石及自身經驗作導航,學習領導自己,領導他人。
What is LPL?
LPL is Learn · Play · Lead. We learn from remarkable people and from our own. We play to be creative. We lead ourselves and then other people.
LPL, is the theme of our Cultural Heritage Leadership Project, funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust.
We believe cultural heritage is more than brick and mortar. It's the sum total of our memories and experiences. It's the spirit that shapes our City.
People are the true custodians of cultural heritage. Our stories are the stories of Hong Kong.
There are many stories waiting to be told. By people who are remarkable in their own ways. Some of them are already famous in what they do. Some are heroes unsung.
Our Core Values:
SHARE – We believe we are all interconnected despite different cultures and beliefs.
FREE – We believe we are born to be free in the way we live, think of ourselves, and allow others to be.
COMMUNICATION – We believe it can break down barriers of all kinds.
INSPIRE – We believe Life is an act of miracle and never cease to be inspired by it.
LOVE – We believe it is what drives the Universe, makes everything look beautiful and us unafraid.
This project is divided into two parts:
1. Restoration of the Fringe Club building
It's built originally as an ice depot by old Dairy Farm more than 100 years ago. From 1983, by stages, Fringe Club has converted it into a vibrant award-winning contemporary arts space.
For the first time, after witnessing epochal changes of Hong Kong, we're going to restore the historical details as well as light up the facade as a tribute to this very special Grade 1 historical building.
A team of conservationists and architects is to give advice for the capital works. At the same time, they act as a bridge between the actual heritage building restoration and the so-called intangible cultural heritage that brings us to the 2nd part of our programme.
2. Learn · Play · Lead
The core of the Leadership Project is the tripartite concept of “Learn · Play · Lead”. We want to Learn from remarkable people, so as not to be limited by rigid or timid thinking; we propose to Play as a way of being creative and finding solutions in our everyday life; we will also learn to Lead by example and experience.
