Objectives:

• Raise public interest towards Hong Kong’s significance towards lighthouse and maritime history through City University of Hong Kong’s Lighthouse Heritage Research Connections’ project 2018/19.
• Allow visitors rediscover 19th century archived collections and old documents which relate to Hong Kong’s Green Island Lighthouse along with coastal lighthouses across the South China Sea.
• Emphasise the importance of lighthouse establishments for seafaring through interactive activities.
• Strengthen long-term sustainability for maritime knowledge while enhancing the public’s social responsibility to understand and preserve historical sites in Hong Kong such as lighthouses.

About:

For as long as they have been standing, lighthouses have been a lifesaving presence to seafarers all across the globe. However, with satellite and GPS technology, lighthouses are slowly fading into a shadow of the past. The skyscraper capital of the world, Hong Kong serves as one of the busiest ports across the globe. The lighthouses placed all around the city was an indisputable influence on the significance of sea navigation. Without lighthouses such as the Green Island Lighthouse, maritime progress in Asia would not be where it is today.

Lighthouse Memories is an ongoing Lighthouse Research Heritage Connections (LHRC) project co-developed by Joe HE (Associate Head of Communication and Media) and Steve CHING (Special Advisor, Run Run Shaw Library). Through these projects, students at City University of Hong Kong are able to find historical collections which support their research on lighthouse heritage. For this year’s International Museum Day event, Lighthouse Heritage Research Connections wishes to exhibit Hong Kong’s Green Island Lighthouse. Visitors to Lighthouse Memories and Lights in Time will be introduced to Hong Kong’s lighthouse heritage through this event. The Hong Kong Maritime Museum’s International Museum Day event will feature the Lighthouse Heritage Research Connections’ project that will demonstrate the information obtained through primary sources such as archived collections, old documents, images, and texts that support the research on the Green Island Lighthouse (Hong Kong).

Visitors will be able to view maps, charts, old newspapers and other collected archives during 19th century China. The screening of Lighthouse Memories: Green Island Lighthouse will also be shown during this event. We also wish to invite representatives from institutions and organizations which play a key role in today’s weather understanding through data collection, environmental protection of the harbour, and maritime services; all which help in navigational safety.

燈塔記憶是由香港城市大學邵逸夫圖書館與媒體與傳播系共同舉辦的跨學科燈塔古蹟研習實踐項目。通過這些實踐項目，香港城市大學的學生能夠找到所需史料，從而進行燈塔古蹟的實證調查研究。今年的國際博物館日，燈塔古蹟研習實踐項目將展示香港青洲燈塔，並向來訪者介紹香港燈塔與海事歷史。在香港海事博物館的國際博物館日上將放映香港城市大學學生的燈塔記憶項目影片，該影片將會展示從各處搜集的歸檔文獻、舊檔案、老照片、文字記載等關於香港青洲燈塔的一手資料。
