The Artground has a variety of age-specific drop-in programmes on the weekends that participants will get to enjoy!
From 23th May till 15th September 2019, we present Happy Homebodies – Happy Homebodies features creativity in the simplicity of everyday life. Make new discoveries about common objects at home which are beautifully transformed into an uncommon experience. The magic of this exploration is that it shows children new ways of looking at ordinary objects around us. From a simple dot to the intricate lines that characterise the different parts and objects in a house, journey through the little spaces which open up new possibilities for imagination and innovation! Entry into The Artground itself is free and donations are encouraged.
Ticketed Programmes
The Artground occasionally plays host to ticketed performances and workshops.
TAG Drop-in Programmes
Every weekend, The Artground organises a variety of age-specific drop-in programmes that participants will get to enjoy on a first come, first served basis, inside our Whitebox. Each programme will be charged at $10 per parent-child pair, which you can pay in the queue just before the programme starts. *On 7th July, as part of our birthday fundraising, each programme will be charged at $15 per parent-child pair. There is no registration for these activities as they are first come, first served (unless stated otherwise). An announcement will be made 5 mins before each programme and the first XX number of children in the queue will get to enjoy the programme (XX refers to the age-specified & capacity of the programme, ie Thumpety Thump is for the first 15 children between 5 – 12 years old).
