Two (2) of the most interesting, innovative and meaningful ideas/proposals get to win $ 2,500, the chance to turn your imagination into reality and share the final creative work at the next event this year.   

THEME: RE-CREATION OF HERITAGE: LOOKING AT THE PAST FOR THE FUTURE

Cultural heritage is important, for it embodies the history of a nation, a legacy of every Singaporean’s roots. It is also an important part of a Singaporean’s identity. It is how one expresses their thoughts, beliefs and way of life. Our heritage provides clues to our past and how our society has evolved. Most importantly, it helps us understand and explain why we are the way we are.

What does heritage look like to you? How can we better represent it in Singapore? What would you do differently from what and how is it being presented today?
