Discover Local Creatives and Artisans At The Whimsical Wonderland Art Market This National Day!
This National Day, come spend the weekend at the Whimsical Wonderland Art Market, organised by Imagine The World. We are transforming an art studio space in MacPherson into a bustling art market right before the National Day public holiday! So join us for a cup of creativi-tea on 6 and 7 August 2022, from 11:00AM to 7:00PM.
In this first edition of Imagine The World’s Art Market, we explore the theme of a tea party, representative of a gathering of creative minds to experiment with the endless possibilities of art. This pop-up market is also organised for a good cause. Partnering with Singapore Council of Women’s Organisations (SCWO), partial proceeds from the event will be donated towards the organisation to further aid their cause of achieving gender equality in Singapore.
Drop by to browse the handcrafted goods sold by local creatives, nab yourself some food from local partners, enjoy a showcase of short films by LASALLE students, or engage in various activities and workshops hosted by Room To Imagine and other artisans. From perfume making, acrylic pour art, or polymer clay workshops, to tarot card readings and jagua ink tattoos, there is a medley of activities to partake in. Pick up unique artisanal pieces ranging from handmade pottery to terrariums, earrings and other accessories. Bringing together up to 16 unique creative brands under one roof, this two-day event will be a great place to visit for a family outing, a couple’s date or for those who simply want to broaden their experience of the local art community in Singapore.
As part of the event, some of the artisans who are involved in the art market will also be sharing about their inspiring journeys in the local arts and culture scene. The interviews will be published on the Imagine the World’s website as well as the social media pages (@imaginetheworldco).
