The place for temporary exibitions, I had the Leonardo Davincis earlier Mona Lisa in early January 2015, for 20 SGD and an Ipad included for the tour a bit pricey , expected something else ;-)

Great venue for small, intimate events or cocktail parties in a heritage building

Old colonial building with interesting art display and show. Its exhibition is quite good but the light is really bad.

Love going here for screenings, lovely concerts and community engagements.

Enter the twilight zone. Settle all your phone calls before entering. StarHub's subscribers get no reception in here. Be prepared for irate friends who can't reach u.
