Here are highlights from my visit to the National Gallery Singapore yesterday.
We will continue to build our national collection through acquisitions and donations. The exhibitions and activities at the Gallery will help us to appreciate where we come from and inspire a new generation to paint and create new canvasses. I hope that in time Singaporeans will grow to love the Gallery and that it will become the pride of Singapore. – LHL

Our students will have a 1-week school break next week. This was introduced due to the extra long Term 3 which started on 2 June and will end on 4 September.
Take the opportunity to explore local attractions with friends and family, have fun and learn new things. The National Gallery Singapore children’s festival is back, with an online edition of the Small Big Dreamers children’s festival. This year’s #SmallBigDreamersAtHome will take our young artists into the digital world. They can explore the interactive exhibitions or put on their creative hats and create their own artwork.
If you plan to head outside for sunshine and fresh air, do continue to take the necessary precautions, practise social responsibility and safe distancing. Enjoy your break! – LHL
