2009 certainly signifies a rebirth of many projects under NHB. The latest to join the group is our newsletter NHBuzz. Edgier, snazzier and now at an extended 24 pages long, NHBuzz promises to be your companion on the latest in the museum and heritage scene.

Besides giving you a sneak preview of the latest exhibitions at our museums – from the blockbuster The Kangxi Emperor: Treasures from the Forbidden City to Serenity in Stone: The Qingzhou Discovery – this issue of NHBuzz also reveals the story behind Heritage TV in the cover story, Making Television History…on a wing and a prayer.

Ever wondered what an archivist does? Behind The Scenes does just that and delves beyond the surface of some of these unusual jobs.

Singaporeans love their food, that’s a well known fact. But how many of us know of the food and beverage outlets at the museums? Next time you are at the National Museum of Singapore, complete your museum experience and dine at the Novus Restaurant (but not before reading our food review in Life & Living section of this issue of NHBuzz, of course!).

Pick up the latest copy of NHBuzz at the MICA lobby or read the pdf version here.
