SANTAI at the Singapore Courtyard reimagines the space as a place to slow down, recharge and connect. Extending the festival’s theme, “The Power in Us,” SANTAI invites everyone to unwind and take part in guided and drop-in activities that celebrate collective strength and personal expression.

From capturing portraits at the photo booth, doodling your own reflections on power, to crafting small yet meaningful keepsakes, there is something for everyone to enjoy at their own pace. The space will also host artist talks, DJ sessions and themed craft booths, making SANTAI at Singapore Courtyard an inviting stop throughout the festival whether you’re here to linger, participate or simply take a breather.

Small and Powerful

Make your words last forever! Participants are invited to write or draw a heartfelt message to themselves or a loved one, which will then be transformed into a small, lasting keepsake. You can take home a piece full of motivation to bring around wherever you go!
