Heads up, there’s a lot of shopping to be done this weekend at fairs, pop-ups and markets so best be prepared!

It’s a family sort of weekend coming up where you can bring the whole gang to Art Zoo for a bounce sesh, check out the District Design Dialogue happenings at Chip Bee Gardens in Holland Village, or shop over 200 booths at the returning Boutiques Fair. See you out there!

Our favourite street party is back!

Once again, the great Keong Saik Road will be grounds for another Urban Ventures street party – and we’re not complaining. As always we’re looking forward to some great food, music, entertainment and this round, design as the street party will be part of the Singapore Urban Design Festival 2018. See you all out on the streets!
