Farewell Party
@ Asian Civilisations Museum
Wednesday 14 Oct 09, from 19:30h until late
To mark the end of proceedings we will gather at the Asian
Civilisations Museum. This grand neo-Palladian building was
the former home of Singapore’s colonial government, housing
government offices for many years before becoming one of Singapore’s
major cultural institutions. Sample delicious local cuisine
prepared by traditional hawker stalls, dance to the band,
and enjoy the magnificent view from the terrace across the
Singapore River as the sun sets.
Before the Farewell Party, explore the Museum’s galleries,
showcasing the history and artisanship of Singapore and the
surrounding Asian regions. The Museum will be open until 19:00h
for a small admission charge.
Entry to the Farewell Party is included with your registration.
Additional tickets are available for 90 SGD when you register. |
