Explore Art in a Relaxed Setting with How to Art with Friends
With How to Art with Friends, exploring art doesn’t have to feel complicated or intimidating. This interactive programme invites you to explore artworks through guided discussions and engaging activities at your own pace.
As you move through the session, you’ll be encouraged to share perspectives, ask questions, and see artworks in new ways, all within a relaxed and social setting — it’s an easy, welcoming way to experience the Gallery together.
It’s a great pick for first-time visitors, social outings with friends, or anyone curious about art but unsure where to begin.
Family-Friendly Art Activities: Art Alive!
Art Alive! brings artworks to life through interactive storytelling and drama designed especially for families. Led by Gallery facilitators, this programme invites children and their parents or guardians to explore art together in fun, hands-on ways.
Through imaginative activities each month, young audiences are guided to spark creativity and curiosity, and explore new ways of seeing art beyond the Gallery’s walls. It’s a lively, hands-on experience that makes discovering art feel playful and accessible – a great choice for families with children, creative learning experiences, or weekend family activities together.
Explore art with GalleryToddlers!
Designed for children aged 2-3 years old, GalleryToddlers! introduces art through sensory play and hands-on activities inspired by artworks in the Gallery. Each session is built around a different artwork, giving children something new to explore every month. It’s a great option if you’re looking for toddler-friendly activities in Singapore that go beyond screen time.
Along the way, parents get to join in too, making it a shared experience that’s just as enjoyable for you as it is for them. It’s a gentle, age-appropriate introduction to art for toddlers, and a great option if you’re looking for an interactive parent-and-child activity that goes beyond just sitting still.
New sessions are released monthly, so book them fast!
