In Singapore, the arts have long been misunderstood and seen as less important. During the pandemic, the arts was most famously dubbed as “non-essential.”

But what if we are underestimating the power and potential of the arts — not just in the final product, but in the process itself — as a key approach to change?

We’ll talk about:

• The arts, not just as an output or a form for consumption, but the arts as a process
• How the arts is a useful intervention in different fields of work, like healthcare, community building, social sector, etc
• What could it look like to approach our own work, lives and practices more artistically?
