Arts & Heritage

The National Heritage Board will partner shop owners in heritage precincts to co-create “mini-museums” that showcase the history of their respective businesses. The initiative will be rolled out in five precincts by 2022, allowing the community to take ownership of their heritage, and develop capabilities in heritage documentation, promotion and conservation.

ICH safeguarding efforts

Safeguarding and promoting intangible cultural heritage

Arts & Heritage

The National Heritage Board will continue to partner Singaporeans to promote and safeguard our intangible cultural heritage through means such as recognition schemes and funding support.

Singaporeans can also look forward to the results of our bid to inscribe Hawker Culture in Singapore on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in December 2020.
