25 Jun 2022, Sat | 3pm – 5pm
Location: Open field next to Blk OVenue: Open field next to Blk O
Capacity: up to 100 pax per session
Price: Free with Registration. Each ticket admits one child with accompanying adult(s).
Recommended for ages 4 to 12.
Play is the best way to learn.
Play is not a luxury; it is necessary for children.
Outdoor and free play allows children to have the opportunity to explore at their own pace and make choices for themselves; it’s not surprising that children have better self-regulation when they are allowed to have unstructured play.
Join us for 90 mins of outdoor free play with art stuff, recycled materials, and water. Your child will experience the freedom to explore their curiosity while learning about sharing and social cues.
Rain or shine we will continue (unless there is lightning). There will also be messy play, so we suggest wearing old clothes and bringing extra clothes to change.
If it rains, we’ll just play in the water puddles so gear up with rain boots if you want. Play is serious learning for the children (and us).

From 13 June – 2 July 2022.
cont·act Contemporary Dance Festival returns with a refreshed name and identity for its 12th edition! The newly stylised name of “cont·act” – meaning “continued act” – encapsulates the Festival’s enduring commitment to contribute to the local contemporary dance landscape, and renewed vigour in celebrating dance as a bridging force of experiences and perspectives.
Themed “Breathing Ground”, the 12th edition of the Festival conducts a space of respite, reflection, and reconnection with the self and the larger community. The Festival’s lineup of live performances, for live audiences, is a resistant note against the onslaught of digitalisation of performance in the past two years, yet a knowing ode and farewell to the making and presenting of dance as we know it. As we begin to reimagine dance and its possibilities in an endemic world, “Breathing Ground” – illustrating a heaving, breathing earth – suggests a burgeoning ripeness for the turn of a new chapter

After the challenging 2 years we’ve lived through, what better salve for the soul than poetic words of wisdom from the pen of Kahlil Gibran. This selection of his works – some instantly recognizable, others less known but equally evocative – are woven into an evening of entertainment and illumination.
Presented in an ambiance reminiscent of a Middle Eastern desert tent and accompanied by the ethereal strains of the Arabian oud played “LIVE” by a master of the instrument, Gibran’s words are revealed in an intimate, storytelling fashion.
Thought-provoking, calming, inspiring words for Life’s elemental moments – from mundane to magnificent, and the many shades between.

The Social Exchange
The Social Exchange was founded since 2016, with a simple goal of promoting the local artisans/crafters scene in Singapore. They want to create a platform for the local community to come together to share and showcase their products to like-minded people, as they believe every vendor has a story to tell about their products.
