KUCHING: In what used to be an abandoned building at Capital Garden here, an exciting new project is taking shape to transform the space into a creative community hub for Kuching’s artistic talents.

This is HAUS KCH, a project pioneered by a group of young people who share a vision of creating a one-stop centre where the local arts and culture community can congregate, collaborate and grow. HAUS stands for harmonise, accelerate, unite and sustain, while KCH is short for Kuching.
