Resorts World Sentosa, National Arts Council launch sustainability arts fund

The fund will help local arts groups create works at the Singapore Oceanarium.

Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) and the National Arts Council (NAC) have launched the Singapore Oceanarium by RWS Sustainability Arts Fund under NAC’s Sustain the Arts (stART) Fund.

Seeded with a $200,000 contribution from RWS, the fund will support local arts organisations in creating various immersive art forms at the Singapore Oceanarium.

“Through the Singapore Oceanarium by RWS Sustainability Arts Fund, we are creating a dynamic platform where artistic expression sparks deeper understanding of our oceans, cultivating both an appreciation for marine biodiversity and the creative arts,” said Lee Shi Ruh, CEO of RWS.

Following an open call in 2024, two local arts groups have been selected to create art forms that will engage guests whilst delivering marine conservation messages.

Mural art studio Mural Lingo will present "Between Wonder and Waste," a mural experience combining traditional paint work, sculptural installations, and motion sensor technological touches that react to guests as they draw nearer.

The art installation will feature a 22-metre-long wall art mural, incorporating debris collected during beach cleanups, including a cleanup organised by the Conservation and Science team from Singapore Oceanarium.

Moreover, contemporary dance company TRDOco will present ‘Guardians of the Sea.’ The dance performance will feature the beauty of marine life with the reality of ocean pollution in a three-part performance.

Guests can experience Mural Lingo's art from 23 July onwards and TRDOco’s performances from 31 July onwards.

Both can be experienced in the Open Ocean zone in the Singapore Oceanarium.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
