Fine Art is the flagship of NAFA, established since the founding of NAFA as an art school in 1938. Over the years, thousands of Fine Art graduates have crossed its threshold and have now become artists active in Singapore and abroad. In the last 20 years, NAFA has evolved this legacy into a living practice touching lives of children, youths, the general community and working professionals other than full-time artists. In celebrating SG50 for our nation, we herald this contribution to our art landscape and the social bonds of our community for all at home and abroad. ‘Celebrating Everyday Life’ is an overarching theme that brings together the generations of illustrious and budding talents from this community in a celebration of our legacy and practice.
