Learning Gallery

Spark Curiosity. Rekindle Wonder. Explore contemporary art with the uninhibited spirit of a child and rediscover the joy of learning.

Established as part of Singapore Art Museum’s continued support of art education, the Learning Gallery is dedicated to the engagement and understanding of broader issues through contemporary artworks. These artworks have been specially selected from the National Collection or commissioned to extend the learning of contemporary art to all ages.

The human impulse to create and appreciate art starts in childhood. Childhood itself is a defining stage in all our lives, shaping our emotions, beliefs, and memories. Both art and childhood are universal human experiences, marked by freedom, inherent curiosity, and fearless exploration.

The Learning Gallery invites you to rediscover this childlike spirit—unburdened and unafraid to explore the unknown. In this second edition, we encourage you to look beyond the ordinary, explore possibilities even if it means venturing outside traditional boundaries, and experimenting with new ideas and materials.

The gallery features artworks that spans across diverse media and explore accessible themes of identity, home, nature and the environment, people and places, space and memory. They provoke important and timely questions about life and inspire new ways of seeing and understanding contemporary art.

School groups must make a booking prior to their visit. In-gallery teaching and learning resources for the Learning Gallery are also available. Please contact [email protected] for enquiries and bookings.
