The National University of Singapore’s student publication, The Ridge, brings us this review of the recent NUS Museum’s public outreach project, Open House.

The NUS Museum’s vast spaces and archival collections were a stark contrast to the clutter and claustrophobia of my hostel room. In its first Open house held on last month on Thu, 31 Jan, the NUS Museum served a tastefully selected set of visual, aural and gustatory platter to the NUS staff and students. Rightfully dubbed as a ‘Back to School’ party by one of the organizers, the Open house was an attempt to reach out to the NUS community and make its presence known amidst all the pandemonium (presentations and group meetings!) that shrouds us.

Located in the University Cultural Centre (UCC), and with research and education as its guiding light, the NUS Museum came under the purview of the NUS Centre for the Arts (CFA) in 2004. A bellwether of culture, the Museum aims to use entertainment to inspire a deeper thinking and broaden perspectives.
