About Social
Creatives
Our objectives are based on the rhetorical
question: If you ask anyone in Singapore to draw a house on a piece of paper, a typical
interpretation will be a square-shaped building with triangular
roof. Perhaps there is a chimney, and on the square-shaped front
there are two windows and a door. However, where can you find a
house like that in Singapore? Surprisingly, no one draws HDB flats
with poles hanging out of the many windows. Flats signify a unique
and creative Singapore. This exercise shows a misalignment between
what we see and how we feel about our home. We don’t see our Home
as Creative. What we hope to do is to nurture a Creative Home,
emotionally and visually.

About the Pocket Arts
Guide
The Pocket Arts Guide (TPAG) was launched in
2009 under the name CONFABULATION and is Singapore’s leading arts
publication. TPAG was established to provide local audience an
easy-to-understand, non-exclusive coverage of various arts events
and seeks to educate and inform those new to the arts. Topics range
from the traditional fine arts such as paintings and sculptures to
antiquities, the performing arts, installations, as well as film
and photography.
Published monthly, the compact A5 Guide
provides an insight into the local arts scene with unique
reportage, nuanced articles and challenging interviews for our
readers.
TPAG contains the most comprehensive pull-out
art map in Singapore. This enables readers to have a fuss-free art
walk around Singapore’s Art and Heritage District, as well as
explore off-town art troves such as Dempsey, Wessex Estate and
Holland Village.
The Guide is now an indispensable resource
for navigating the local contemporary art
scene; an essential reading to a huge and diverse audience
interested in Singapore and Asia’s arts and
culture.
Complimentary copies of TPAG is available at
several places around Singapore including the Singapore Art Museum, National Library, Singapore Tourism
Board’s Singapore Visitors Centre at Orchard, MICA building,
leading art galleries art groups & venues, and
museums.
