    The National Heritage Board and Ngee Ann Polytechnic jointly invite Singapore-based interest/community groups and/or individuals to submit a proposal for heritage-related projects to be conducted at the Heritage Activation Node at Clementi (HAN@Clementi) in 2025. HAN@Clementi aims to showcase year-round activities and programming that creatively explore and increase awareness of heritage and culture, engage the community, and activate shared public spaces of the Clementi neighbourhood.

    Projects can take on various formats, including but not limited to:

    • exhibition;
    • guided tour programme;
    • talk, lecture, and workshop;
    • screenings;
    • mural; or
    • temporary outdoor artwork installation.

    The overall theme for HAN@Clementi in 2025 is Stories of Clementi.


    Your project proposal should focus on at least one of the following HAN programming priorities:

    1. Celebrate the history, significance, key figures and/or communities in Clementi
    2. Reveal and promote new, or lesser-known, aspects of Clementi’s heritage and culture
    3. Build new audiences that can appreciate the heritage and culture of Clementi
    4. Present Clementi’s heritage and culture in unique and/or innovative ways, such as through the use of technology to engage audiences and to provide them with agency to learn more about the precinct’s heritage.
