The 4th edition of Toolbox International Creative Academy (TICA) will be held in Hong Kong between 14-26 August 2022. TICA is an annual event organized by Toolbox Percussion, with participants from all over the world. We believe exchanges and connections to the folks of the larger international community stimulate artists' intellectual visions and creativity. The academy is sponsored by the Arts Capacity Development Funding Scheme.
In 2022, we are collaborating with the South China Normal University (SCNU) to host exchange programmes. Limited by the COVID situation, we hosted a webinar in May, and looking forward to a planned tour in the fall, featuring the Rome prize composer Bun-Ching Lam for a deep cultural exchange in the Guangzhou campus of SCNU.
Toolbox Percussion Artists:
Hoi Lei Lei, lan Yeung, Jonathan Wu
Sam Tsang, Colin Chow, Danny Ho
