What to expect

Step into a world where art, heritage, and nature bloom in unison. Paper Petals & Glass Domes: Crafting Your Orchid Oasis is a hands-on paper art workshop led by artist Kaelie Kwah where you'll design a miniature orchid greenhouse — a tribute to Singapore’s national flower and the botanical themes in Lee Boon Ngan’s floral paintings.

Inspired by the Singapore Botanic Gardens' Bandstand, you’ll colour, layer, and assemble floral paper cutouts into a 3D scene housed in a 19cm glass dome

Adults will create one glass dome each, while Adult-Child pairs will share one glass dome and one kid-friendly pop-up version.
