I don't normally plug my own events but I am making an exception this time around.
International Museum Day 2007 or
IMD'07 was launched yesterday by
MICA's
Minister at the
National Museum of Singapore. It is going to be a blast from the past with more than 80 activities across 24 museums for everybody! I am sure many of you would have seen the media coverage across all the dailies. Here are some highlights just to whet your appetites.
Indulge in a culinary adventure with
HungryGoWhere's Eastern Surprise Food Trail, or dine amongst toys at the
MINT Museum of Toys. Gain a fresh perspective of our history with Singapore's first museum tours or embrace a whole day of Koreana - includling lip smacking kimchi - at the
Singapore Philatelic Museum.
Keen to invest in art? Why not attend the Art Market talk at the
Singapore Art Museum and hear from prominent gallery owners as they share their secrets on art collecting. Lovers of architecture and street scapes can attend various talks on heritage buildings and design at the
Singapore City Gallery or go on a tour of the
National Museum's architectural highlights.
School holidays just around the corner? Don't know what to do with your hyper-energetic kids? Well, for a start, you can learn about healthy living at
HealthZone, have fun at the Water Wally colouring corner at the
Newater Visitors Centre, or learn about various currencies around the world at the
Singapore Discovery Centre.
With so much to see, hear, taste, feel or do, there really is no excuse to stay home this weekend. Or over the next week or so.
