This Hari Raya Aidilfitri, our office was buzzing with festive energy as we came together to mark this meaningful occasion. 🌙✨   The celebration came to life through the vibrant contributions of our team–from beautifully hand-woven ribbon ketupat decorations and a joyful karaoke session featuring iconic Raya tunes, to engaging games that introduced everyone to popular Raya cookies. 🎤🎶   Events like these are one of the many ways we strive to bring everyone together, strengthening bonds and embracing the rich diversity within SAM! #SingaporeArtMuseum

How does nature reclaim its place after we've left our mark? These secondary forests sit right next to our homes, schools, and street roads—yet we rarely stop to notice them. In 𝘚𝘦𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵, Robert Zhao Renhui invites us to pause and look closer. What traces of the past remain in these landscapes? What can they teach us about nature’s resilience—and our place within it? Swipe to uncover the hidden layers of our secondary forests at 𝘚𝘦𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵, now on view at SAM at Tanjong Pagar Distripark.

SAM is proud to collaborate with ART:DIS for the sixth edition of the Arts and Disability Forum (ADF)!

This week, we kicked off the Lunar New Year celebrations early with our annual Lohei, tossing for a year filled with abundance, prosperity and good health! 🍊🎉   Beyond the symbolic toss and traditions, it was also a chance to bring our team together. Whether bonding with colleagues over lunch, hunting for mini red packets around the office or enjoying a round of bingo, we were surrounded by the spirit of togetherness and camaraderie.   At SAM, we believe in fostering a culture where everyone feels connected and valued.

Our recent Dinner and Dance was a nostalgic blast from the past! 🎉📀 The night was filled with retro vibes as we grooved to classic tunes, showed off our knowledge of iconic '80s movies and music in a trivia quiz, and of course, felt our hearts race during the highly anticipated Lucky Draw—eager for the big win!   It was truly an unforgettable evening that reflected the dynamic and creative spirit that we deeply value at SAM! ✨ #SingaporeArtMuseum

We recently came together to celebrate the vibrant spirit of Deepavali! ✨🪔 Our team members joined in the festivities, participating in a quiz that tested our knowledge of the holiday. The highlight was undoubtedly the delicious lunch, featuring a spread of traditional dishes that brought everyone together.   A heartfelt thank you to our amazing team for organising this celebration! From the vivid setup to the engaging quiz, we celebrated not just the festival but also the rich diversity within our office.   #SingaporeArtMuseum

We are deeply grateful for the generous donations to the Singapore Art Museum’s collection, including key works from the MaGMA Collection by celebrated artists Sopheap Pich and David Chan. At SAM, our mission is to build a distinct and varied collection that not only reflects perspectives from Southeast Asia but also engages with global artistic dialogues. These contributions enhance our ability to showcase significant regional artistic developments and situate them in global contemporary art practices, offering diverse perspectives for audiences in Singapore and beyond.

Last month's SAM Staff Day truly showcased our vibrant and collaborative spirit! 🎉   Energised by a hearty breakfast, we embarked on an Amazing Race around Singapore Sports Hub, where we tackled a series of team challenges. The day concluded with a prize presentation, celebrating the achievements of our top-performing teams. It was such a wonderful opportunity to connect with colleagues beyond our usual work groups and strengthen our bonds!   If you’re seeking a dynamic workplace where teamwork and creativity thrive, explore career opportunities with us and become part of our amazing team: https://lnkd.in/dKw8Rga8 #SingaporeArtMuseum
