Things To Do For June School Holidays 2022

4. Night-Time at the Museums For Children’s Season

The first-ever night-themed Children’s Season, titled The Night Is Young is jointly presented by the National Heritage Board (NHB) and the Museum Roundtable (MR). The annual festival will run from now to 26 June 2022 and aims to provide cultural and educational experiences that will educate and inspire both the young and their families on Singapore’s heritage. Participants can expect to enjoy a range of family-friendly offerings of more than 100 exhibitions, programmes and activities by participating MR museums.

One activity that you should not miss is exploring museums after sunset – Artefacts Alive!, presented by MR in collaboration with The Storytelling Centre Limited. Held across five Saturday evenings from now to 25 June, families can explore the Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM), Indian Heritage Centre (IHC) and National Museum of Singapore through dramatised night-time storytelling and craft sessions, as storytellers regale them with tales of adventure – of majestic birds, royal celebrations, and mischief-makers – inspired by each museum’s artefacts.

As part of the programme, participants will also get to create a glow-in-the-dark handicraft, tailored to each story and based on the selected artefacts, and take home a memento of their visit to the museum.
