With early March bringing a chilly touch and the promise of a rainy weekend to Hong Kong, it may be tempting to throw your plans out of the window and stay at home.

However, the city offers a mix of cosy and engaging activities this weekend to draw you outside – head to a gallery for a thought-provoking art exhibition, celebrate International Women’s Day with empowering cocktail creations, or watch a science fiction film from an Oscar-winning director.

Though the skies may be grey, we hope our suggestions for a fulfilling weekend provide a silver lining.

1. Adrian Wong X Doris Wong: The Trivial Sublime

Two artists take the meaning of life and the act of caring for yourself and others as starting points for their joint exhibition at SC Gallery in Wong Chuk Hang, on Hong Kong Island.

Meanwhile, Adrian Wong combines his deadpan humour with the stress of juggling multiple roles as father, professor and artist in his works, which are inspired by his interactions with his children.

Adrian Wong X Doris Wong: The Trivial Sublime, SC Gallery, 1902, Sungib Industrial Centre, 53 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Wong Chuk Hang, Tuesday-Saturday, 11.30am-6.30pm. Until April 5.
