• Up to 1980s: colonial inheritances
– E.g. Victoria Theatre, National Museum

 

• 1990s: develop new and upgrade old cultural facilities
– E.g. Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, the Singapore Art Museum, the Asian Civilisations Museum and the National Museum expansion

• ACSR recommendations to ensure that arts and culture is everywhere
– Recommends the use of public facilities and business spaces for arts and cultural activities
– Recommends building a downtown arts and cultural district

• Developing creative clusters
– Clustering creates positive externalities, culturally, socially and economically
– Conversion of existing properties into studio offices for creative workers
– E.g. Workloft@Chip Bee, Workloft@Wessex, The SOHO@Central

 

• National Arts Council’s Arts Housing Scheme
– Old disused warehouses and shophouses are converted in housing for art groups
