On 7 November 2024, Singtel launched the third edition of “Expressions Through Art 2024“.

This event aims to show the talents of students from special education (SPED) schools in Singapore.

The exhibition features 37 artworks from all 25 SPED schools in the country.

For the first time, the exhibition will be held at Gardens by the Bay.

According to Singtel, Mr Yuen Kuan Moon, Group Chief Executive Officer of Singtel, said, “Art is a powerful medium for expression, and we’re proud to be able to give these students a chance to shine through this initiative.”
