May Sketchwalk at Yishun 10



Hi Sketchers!
For May 2026's month end sketchwalk, we'll be going to Yishun 10 (Now renamed as Golden Village Yishun) Opened in 1992, Yishun 10 — better known to many as Golden Village Yishun — was Singapore’s very first multiplex cinema and became a familiar landmark for generations growing up in the north. Designed by Australian architect Geoff Malone, the building stood out for its bold postmodern architecture, futuristic sci-fi motifs and flashy neon-lit exterior that made it look almost like “a rocket ship that landed in Yishun from outer space". After more than 30 years, the iconic complex is now expected to be redeveloped.


If you wish to sketch indoors, you may patronise one of the cafes or eateries. Please do not set up your stool inside the mall as it will obstruct shoppers.
Please note that the show and tell location is tentatively a space outside the mall (TBC on the day itself)
