Art Sandbox

A multidisciplinary arts programme your seniors will keep coming back for.

Our programme

Art Sandbox is a 6-week creative arts programme designed for seniors in Singapore. Through Music, Dance, Visual Art, and Spoken Word, participants are given a meaningful space to express a thought, a feeling, or an idea — at their own pace and in their own way.

Grounded in evidence, Art Sandbox is built to increase social interaction, improve physical and cognitive function, and foster genuine connection — making it one of the most engaging senior wellbeing programmes available for active ageing centres and community organisations in Singapore.

Each Art Sandbox session is accessible, inclusive, and genuinely enjoyable for seniors of all abilities and backgrounds. Our multidisciplinary team of professional artist facilitators guides participants through creative exploration across theatre arts — no prior experience required.

Sessions are structured yet flexible, making Art Sandbox easy to introduce into your existing active ageing programme calendar. Fully subscribed in our first run in Singapore, with demand consistently exceeding available places.

Why Organisations Choose Art Sandbox

Active ageing centres and community organisations across Singapore choose Art Sandbox because it works — across genders, ethnicities, and varying levels of ability. Whether your seniors are active and social or harder to reach, Art Sandbox creates a space where everyone belongs.

Currently delivered in partnership with Presbyterian Community Services at active ageing centres in Singapore, the programme has built a loyal following and a strong reputation for inclusive, high-quality arts engagement for seniors.
