Following its 10th anniversary, National Gallery Singapore has reimagined its iconic two-block logo, rooted in the architecture of the former Supreme Court and City Hall, as functional benches for people to sit, gather and connect. In January 2026, ten sets of Gallery Benches will be placed at iconic locations across Singapore, before returning to the Gallery in February 2026 as resting spots for visitors.
These iconic Gallery Benches are now available for adoption individually or as a pair. By adopting a bench, your generosity will support our work to make the arts accessible for all. All adopters will receive recognition through a customised donor plaque.
This programme invites donors to support the Gallery’s mission of creating accessible and welcoming spaces for all. Through this initiative, individuals and organisations may adopt the Gallery Benches, contributing directly to visitor comfort, community enjoyment, and the enhancement of shared public spaces. Adopters will receive:
As a Bench Adopter, your support funds the Gallery’s efforts in ensuring that art remains inclusive and accessible to all visitors, regardless of ability.
Personalised Recognition
Each adopted bench features a bespoke, high-quality brushed steel plaque seamlessly integrated into the design. You may choose to personalise your plaque with:
A bench is a place for reflection, and your adoption ensures that everyone, regardless of their journey, has a place to rest and be inspired.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a prominent presence within the Gallery before the public launch. With only 10 pairs of benches available on a first-come, first-served basis, we invite you to act now to ensure placement in our most iconic public spaces.
As a registered IPC, donations to the National Gallery Singapore are eligible for a 250% tax deduction.
Our Partnership Development team is ready to walk you through the selection process and plaque personalisation.
