HONG KONG FROM A TO Z
School programs
Assia Bennani | Ellen Ng
Two years ago we had the chance to self-publish our very first book: Hong Kong from A to Z. This book is a tribute to Hong Kong, through a story for children and we love sharing it with young readers. We have designed a serie of workshops inspired from our book that you will discover in this catalogue. We hope that will inspire future writers and artists and we warmly thank schools for giving us the opportunity to contribute to their students' artistic development. Each workshop can be adjusted in length and adapted to different age groups. Some can take place in classroom while others might be outside, e.g. a mural project. We invite you to find out more through these pages.
Ellen & Assia

This book follows a little girl, named, Ayma, and a lost frog, Romer, to find its home through A to Z of Hong Kong. In this fun adventure, they discover the places of Hong Kong and experience the city’s rich culture, and fall in love from A to Z!

ABOUT ASSIA & ELLEN
Assia Bennani grew up in Casablanca, Morocco and moved to France at age 18 to study interior design at the LISAA School of Paris. Eager to explore different universes and not lock herself in a box, Assia spent several years navigating between graphic design, mural art and children’s book illustrations. After moving to Hong Kong in 2007, immersed in an environment where creativity and diversity are embraced and celebrated every single day, Assia’s identity as an artist began to take shape and express itself. Her love for texture and pattern work have become her trademark in all the projects she has undertaken, most visible in her mural art projects & paintings. On her online boutique you can discover a range of Art prints, paintings, storybooks that she worked on. Each items is unique or created in limited quantities, always sketched by hand with care and loads of passion! In 2018, Assia decided to start sharing her passion for the different techniques that she had the chance to try and refine over the last 20 years, and launched two weekly classes for young people, ready to take up this exciting new challenge.

She currently lives in Hong Kong with her husband Sui and their fun-loving children, Emma & Jamie.
