Special Sketchwalk at Changi Chapel and Museum



Hi Sketchers,

This Saturday, we have a collaboration with Changi Chapel and Museum (CCM) for our sketchwalk. The museum tells the stories of Prisoners of War and civilians interned there during the Japanese Occupation of World War II.
Our visit to CCM anticipates the Liberation of Singapore in September. Come see how the POWs lived and made life more liveable during their internment, from the chapel they built, the murals they painted, the journals they kept, the sketches they drew, and more. Come learn their stories of resilience and survival.
*** Please bring a form of ID for entry.
** Only dry media is allowed inside the museum including the chapel area. Wet media and paints are only allowed outside at the lawn. Markers and pens are counted as dry media, but please be careful not to stain the surroundings.
As this is a collaboration with CCM, there will be a briefing by our host and a short optional walkthrough. There will also be a roving photographer. If you would not like your photograph to be taken, please let the photographer know.
Stools are allowed in the galleries, but please spread out and avoid blocking other visitors or the walkways.
Please refrain from eating and drinking inside the museum.
See you there!
