About Us

The Oriental Ceramic Society of Hong Kong Limited (OCS) was established in 1974. It provides a forum for the lively exchange of ideas and information, sponsors publications, presents exhibitions, study sessions and travel programmes and hosts a regular series of scholarly lectures by an impressive array of distinguished speakers sharing knowledge with members whose interest is their main enthusiasm.

In recent years the OCS has promoted joint lectures and tours with overseas affiliated and local societies who share an interest in the collection or appreciation of Oriental art and culture.

A distinctive role of the OCS is to bring the resources of collectors to the public and to encourage collectors to open up their treasures and their fund of knowledge and experience, both to members and to the general public.

The OCS was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee in 1992 and is recognised as a charitable institution by the Inland Revenue Department with the result that donations to the OCS are deductible for Hong Kong tax purposes.
