Car-Free Weekend: The Local People Edition In Collaboration with the Urban Redevelopment Authority.
Celebrating our local heroes of everyday!
Concentrating on local hawkers, artists, designers, bakers, distillery and entrepreneurial brands. These local heroes are Singapore in a nutshell and an integral part of Singapore’s way of life. And it is time to celebrate our local heroes who have made a positive impact to commemorate how far we’ve come since the achievement of independence in 1965.
Last but not least; such knowledge, skills, values should be passed through to our future generations so that Singapore will always be unique.

新⽣生活⽂文创市集宗旨 Sing Life Collective Market Objective:
本地文化教育深根 虽然新加坡仅有五⼗十余年的历史，但由于国家地理位置位 于各国交流要道，将东⻄西⽅方⽂文化汇集于此⽽而成为今⽇日特殊 的⽂文化融合景观，此特有国情利⽤用学校教材及教学难以精 准表达给学⽣生及⻘青年学⼦子，借由本活动实际的历史街道导 览搭配故事讲述让年轻⼈人可以感受到⾃自⼰己⽣生活的⼩小红点充 满美丽记忆。
Deep historical roots of Local Cultural Education:
Singapore having only 50 years of nation building history, its geographical advantage as a trading route and a meeting point for cultural exchanges between countries. Her unique situation is hardly expressed using literary materials. Hence, these proposed activities with a focus on visiting historical places of interest, coupled with story-telling and finesse will bring new light and garner appreciation from the younger generation for the little red dot, a place they reside in, filled with many fond memories of the past.
2. ⻘青年⼈人创新创业体验 美学经济时代来临，⽂文化与产业的关系⽇日益密切，我们深 知「商品带动⽂文化，⽂文化造就产业，产业促进经济」，将
⽂文化的概念融⼊入各类的产品设计，让艺术⽣生活化，产业⽂文 化、⽂文化产业化，建构⼀一种新的设计型态，为新加坡⺫⽬目前 发展⽂文化创意产业的主轴。年轻⼈人除了课业努⼒力之外，更 需要可以发挥创意的舞台，为激励更多⻘青年学⽣生从事本地 ⽂文化商品创意设计，发掘优秀⽂文创⼈人才，提升新加坡本地 ⽂文化特⾊色产品之设计美感，扩展产业效益，累积设计⼈人才 资本，进⽽而提升整体竞争⼒力，每季固定的⽂文创市集，挑选 本地学生/⻘青年⼈人设计之⽂文创商品，透过商业发展创意，并 能够有效利⽤用双语交流互动，达成华语学习绩效。
2. Innovation and entrepreneurship experience of young people
With the current and the foreseeable Arts and Culture environment, there is an increasingly close relationship between culture and industry. We need to integrate the concept of art and culture into the various types of product design, to let Arts be part of everyday life, in order to produce any new trend for the current development of cultural and creative industries in Singapore. The Young will need a creative platform and to encourage more youth or students to be engaged in local culture creative design, to discover creative arts talent, and to improve the aesthetics of product designs which bears the characteristics of Singapore’s culture. This will have extended industry benefits, accumulating our capital pool of design talents and thus upgrading our overall competitiveness. With the creative art Bazaar being held every quarter, selected products of creative arts by local students/youth can be further developed through commercial channels while having the benefits of effective exchange and interaction of bilingualism, to achieve higher levels of performance in the learning of Chinese.
3. 艺术回归⼈人⽂文 「⼈人」的感受永远是⽂文化⾥里最不可遗忘的项⺫⽬目，近年来华 语电影及⾳音乐在国际间蓬勃发展，新加坡怎能在这重要的 演进中缺席。从电影《爸妈不在家》获得第五⼗十届⾦金⻢马奖 最佳剧情⽚片我们可以了解，新加坡年轻⼈人对艺术的热情不 亚于亚洲各国，但艺术作品产量却难与他国竞争，透过本 活动华语公益电影/微电影的播放及讨论，让⻘青年⼈人真实 的利⽤用华语艺术交流，达到零距离接触艺术，进⽽而开发本 地⽂文化艺术⼈人才，并汇集新加坡本地学⽣生作品，让学⽣生得 到展现⾃自我作品的管道，华语⽂文化不再只是电影节中的项 目，而是生活的一部分。
3. Humanities as an Art
In recent years, Chinese films and music have flourish in the international arena but this important development is absent in Singapore. The local movie “爸妈不在家” that has won the 50th Golden Horse award for best screenplay, we can understand that the enthusiasm which young Singaporeans have for artistry is non lesser than that of the other Asian countries. Despite this, local artistic productions have difficulty in competing with the rest. Through these activities of Chinese movies / short-film screenings and discussions, the youths will have real opportunities to use Chinese Arts as an exchange, and develop local culture art talents. At the same time, this activities will provide them an avenue to showcase the collection of art works by Singapore local students. Chinese culture will no longer be just part of a film festival, but rather, a part of their life.

In an Instant: Polaroid at the Intersection of Art and Technology
Explore the museum's exhibition, In an Instant: Polaroid at the Intersection of Art and Technology now till 31 March 2019, and discover a nostalgic flashback to the heyday of Polaroid.
In an age where apps provide instant services and smartphones allow us to capture just about anything and everything in an instant, the culture of now has never been so prevalent. Its origins can perhaps be traced back to the late 1940s when Edwin Land first introduced the Polaroid camera to the world, marking a technological breakthrough in the history of photography. Instant photography was born, predating the digital age in which we live today. Polaroid’s unique qualities inspired artists and photographers including Andy Warhol, Ansel Adams, Lucas Samaras and Barbara Crane, while capturing the imagination of everyone else. In allowing people to capture a shared moment and to memorialise it in an instant, Polaroid was arguably perceived as the social network of its time. Through a wide range of Polaroid artworks and artefacts, this exhibition offers insight into the story of Polaroid photography, while exploring the impact of instant photography and this social phenomenon of instantaneity on us today.
