The Story About Hong Kong Through The Lens of Henry Steiner’s Work
The Hari Chronicles will host a conversation between collector and designer John Wu, and authors Christopher DeWolf and Billy Potts of Henry Steiner’s Hong Kong, the first volume of the Zolima Culture Guide series. The Lounge at The Hari Hong Kong will host the fourth edition of The Hari Chronicles on Thursday Nov. 21, 2024, from 6.30-7.30pm, following a drinks reception at 6pm.
