Goethe-Institut Hongkong is pleased to co-organise the Game Night titled "Communal Seating, okay?: The friend in a stranger" with Peace Generation and Dialogue Hour on May 12, 2022 (Thu) from 7:00pm to 9:00pm in the Library of the Institut.

Communal Seating, okay?: The friend in a stranger

We cross paths with strangers everyday. They sway to the same rhythm as us on the bus, queue next to us for a takeaway, and sit across from us in a “cha chaan teng”. How often do you talk to these strangers or just to meet them in the eye? Do you care what impressions you give them? Do you trust them to help you in an emergency?

Conversation with a stranger is an adventure, to discover stories and viewpoints, and to understand yourself better. It is a powerful way to build empathy and trust. We invite you to a meal where a menu of questions guide you to discover the joy of conversing with a stranger.

Conducted in Cantonese and English
Maximum no. of participants: 20
Registration fee: HK$40 via art-mate
