description The generous request to write an article (again!) for Drassana – this time about the Hong Kong Maritime Museum (HKMM) – was a very timely one. The museum is re-inventing itself by expanding its mandate to combine the two more traditional fields of interest, study, and display – history and art – with a third one that is one the minds of so many visitors – the (marine) environment. In the following pages I take the reader through a bit of history (how did the HKMM come about?), a bit of the present (what has the museum turned into, what are the major priorities) and a bit of the future (how will the museum expand into this institution where history, art and (marine) science are represented in a cohesive manner).
