(August 20, 2021, Singapore) In celebration of its tenth anniversary, Silver Arts returns this year from September to December 2021 in a hybrid format, with a blend of physical and digital programmes for seniors and their loved ones to enjoy in-person and from the comfort of their homes. From hands-on workshops, engaging performances and interactive exhibitions, join in as we celebrate the TENacity, stories and creative talents of our seniors.
Look forward to an exciting line-up of more than 30 programmes in English, Malay, Tamil, Mandarin and Chinese dialects. Indulge in nostalgic songs of yesteryear with live performances adapted from popular commissioned works such as Wadah Seni’s Entertainment’s Keroncong Asmara (Romantic Keroncong); reimagine the kampung life in The Glowers Drama Group’s radio play Chap Lau (十楼); enjoy diverse works wrought from mutual respect and cultural exchanges in Pathey Nimidam, a 10-minute Tamil play programme presented by Ravindran Drama Group; pick up a new skill in artist-led workshops and appreciate the new works created by seniors in community arts exhibitions online and at three libraries.
