The Mills building was formerly a cotton-spinning factory owned by Nan Fung Textiles. The green walls and high windows in the D. H. Chen Foundation Gallery are vestiges of the golden era of Hong Kong’s textile industry. The exhibition Welcome to the Spinning Factory! tells the story of a brief but intensive history of Hong Kong’s textile industry, featuring rich imageries, vintage cotton products, as well as archival documents and objects. Visitors are also invited to experience the manual cotton-spinning process using traditional spinning instruments.
