For the next generation ofCreators and Innovators

Playeum is...Singapore’s first non-profit centre for creativity and culture to nurture the next generation of creators and innovators. Playeum inspires creativity and collaboration in children and families through innovative and playful experiences.

Over the past 6 years, Playeum has engaged over 60,000 children and families in over 150 programmes and novel experiences through collaborations with other museums, public institutions and creative practitioners.

Playeum has been recipient of four international awards from the UK-based Campaign for Drawing for innovative work on community engagement in The Big Draw, and has been named a Pacesetter by the Lego Foundation through the global Re-Imagine Learning Challenge.

In order to establish a culture of meaningful and impactful play, and with a formal research agenda, Playeum is aiming to develop a dedicated creative space for children and families.

“During our collaboration, Playeum has brought high quality and innovative arts and cultural engagement into the heart of our community in our void decks, community clubs, parks and libraries – each time impacting learning and development of our children from all walks of life. “

"Thank you for the bright and shiny day! My kids' favourites are the drums and the glow in the dark room. Playeum is full of great ideas."

“I think there is more freedom here in Playeum, the freedom to create and it is more fun!”

“Children today play in different ways. The important thing for us as adults is to create the space and time for them to play.

One example is the Play Museum or Playeum, a social enterprise that organises free events to stimulate more play in Singapore. How lovely that there are enthusiastic people reminding our children to play.

I am glad to meet such serious “players” and want to thank all of you for promoting play in our young.”
