WeCare Arts Experiences @ CDC

About WeCare Arts Experiences @ CDC

As part of a deeper collaboration between NAC and the five CDCs, the WeCare Arts Experiences @ CDC (WCAE) encourages beneficiaries from less privileged backgrounds to access ticketed arts and cultural experiences curated by the NAC and cultural institutions for free. 

Through these experiences, beneficiaries can bond over a shared arts experience with immediate family members, caregivers or befrienders and strengthen social ties.

Activities Supported by the Scheme

WeCare Arts Experiences @ CDC supports tickets, transportation, and light refreshments to facilitate the attendance of arts experiences for

• beneficiaries who are recipients of SSA’s services and assistance;

• beneficiaries who receive financial and social assistance support from community partners;

• immediate family of beneficiaries; and

• volunteers who accompany beneficiaries to the arts experiences.

The ticketed experiences (e.g. performances and exhibitions) are selected by NAC and Singapore’s arts and cultural institutions (CIs) with the beneficiaries in mind. The wide selection of programmes will cater to various age groups and families.

Who is the Scheme for?

Social service agencies (SSAs), and community partners such as grassroots organisations (GROs) and Self-Help Groups (SHGs) can apply for WCAE with their relevant CDC.
