LASALLE College of the Arts, Raffles Place Alliance and Publicis Singapore have come together to present an exhibition that transforms negative social distancing spaces into positive spaces for art.

LASALLE and Ong Shunmugam have launched the Fashion Forward Bursary and LASALLE x Ong Shunmugam Mentorship Programme, an initiative to support Singapore’s next generation of fashion creatives.

The Fashion Forward Bursary was kickstarted by Priscilla Shunmugam, founder of Ong Shunmugam, in aid of talented and financially challenged students who otherwise may not be able to pursue their passion in fashion. It is complemented by the LASALLE x Ong Shunmugam Mentorship Programme, which comprises an industry-led project and a dedicated mentorship for final year students.

Nur Halimah Jasni long harboured the desire to study art at university, and after postponing her plan for several years, she became a student again last August to pursue a BA(Hons) Fine Arts at LASALLE. The art teacher at a secondary school took professional development leave for the duration of her three-year studies.

The eighth edition of popular public art festival ARTWALK returns in 2022 with the theme of Looking Back, Going Forward. For the first time, ARTWALK will be expanding to Katong-Joo Chiat, while continuing to bring to life the rich culture and stories of Little India through multidisciplinary art programmes.

After seven successful years in Little India, the iconic ARTWALK event will expand beyond its home ground for the first time to include Katong-Joo Chiat.

Commissioned by the newly opened GR.ID shopping mall, LASALLE fine arts alumnus Benedict Yu, 25, and fashion designer Joanna Lim, 27, have partnered with five students from other institutions to create Singapore's largest hand-painted mural in a shopping mall. Titled Motherboard, the mural is 29 metres long and 12 metres tall, and took seven months to create.

When Nur Amyra Mawan embarked on a BA(Hons) Interior Design programme at LASALLE College of the Arts, she was interested in how space design can improve both functionality and individual experiences. Her studies, combined with a passion for community, led her to the unusual question: how can we use interior design to help reintegrate ex-offenders into society?
