Exhibition- To the Last Man: Canadian Troops in the Battle of HK

There will be an exhibition on Canadian soldiers who fought in HK during WWII at Hong Kong Museum of Costal Defence:

Venue: Upper Gallery

 

Forum: 

There's an exhibition of wartime sketches from BAAG agents at HKU. It's just beyond the turnstiles, but I asked at the front desk and they let me through to see the exhibition. A similar exhibition was held at the Museum of Coastal Defence earlier in the year:

Exhibition: British Army Aid Group Drawings
Period: 14 November to 18 December 2011
Venue: The University of Hong Kong Main Library Entrance Foyer

The British Army Aid Group (BAAG) was created in free China in
1942 to assist members of the Allied forces in Japanese captivity
during World War II. Its founder was Lieutenant Colonel Lindsay Ride
(1898-1977), a physician and physiologist who had commanded
the Hong Kong Field Ambulance during the three weeks of fighting
in Hong Kong and later became the 5th Vice-Chancellor of the
University of Hong Kong. The British Army Aid Group drawings
collected by Colonel Ride during the war period were later donated
to the Australian War Memorial in Canberra.

With the help of the Museum of Coastal Defence, the University of
Hong Kong Libraries is permitted to hold the exhibition of these
drawings. The drawings on display include 22 drawings which contain
exhaustive and detailed information on the buildings, its surroundings
and geographical locations in both Hong Kong and Kowloon. Other
exhibits include Japanese military money, M19/SOE Escape devices,
Surrender leaflets and War time certificates of BAAG members.

Wattis Fine Art are holding an exhibition at their shop:
