During the opening ceremony, youth artists Ms. Vivian Ng, Ms. Terena Wong, Ms. Gabo Li, Ms. Ming Yan Hung, Mr. Leo Lee, Ms. Kaley Lam and Ms. Man Ling So introduced their artworks. The artists pointed out that their creative idea comes from their own life experience and endeavors, in which young people can relate to.
