Mental wellness is a pressing problem.

Mental health issues are the leading cause of disabilities worldwide, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). In Singapore, this challenge is on the rise - the prevalence of poor mental health grew to 15.6% in 2024 from 13.3% in 2020 based on the Ministry of Health’s National Population Surveys.

Arts-based programmes are proven to help improve mental health.

The arts are a powerful, evidence-based healing tool. WHO’s global review of 900+ studies confirmed the effectiveness of the arts in improving mental health, including reducing anxiety.

At SHAW Studios, our Mama Melodies programme addresses postnatal depression (PND). We are also helping seniors improve their cognitive ability with programmes such as Memories in Motion, Dance Me to the Moon and Arts Sandbox.

We launched The Art of Healing fund-raising campaign (25 November to 25 December 2025) in order to support even more Singapore residents who need our help.
