Hello,

Moving to a new place and learning about the culture goes beyond adapting to customs and traditions. The art scene (music, art, literature, and cinematography) is also a big part of discovering a new country.

What are the best ways to learn about the cultural scene in Singapore, and how important are the arts in the country?

Did you do a lot of research prior to moving, or was it easy to explore the art scene after your move?

How would you explain the art scene in Singapore? What is the most salient art form in the country, that you would recommend for future expats to explore in order to adapt and integrate faster: literature, cinematography, music, etc.?

Which art form and artist most represent the country's culture, and why?

Are there certain activities or places such as art centres that would help to explore the culture in Singapore?

Thank you for sharing your experience,

Priscilla

Hi,

Most of the people I know who are interested in cultural events use http://artbeatsin.sg/. They curate and send you once a week the best things to do that specific week, and it's free.

I find the cultural scene in Singapore is underestimated. There are many interesting things to do.
