Our Work

Preservation, heritage and legacy – these are words often associated with things of the past. But a deeper look into what they truly mean, reveals how they are very much words of the future as well.

Our festivals, language campaigns, heritage trails, education programmes and community grants harness our partnerships with the community, establish long-standing relationships that allow us to collectively recognise and celebrate our shared heritage.

The National Heritage Board (NHB) plays a key role in the development of a vibrant and diverse museum and heritage landscape in Singapore, through the cross-sharing of knowledge and expertise with fellow arts and heritage professionals. We endeavour to grow capabilities in the sector and encourage a culture of museum excellence, to lay a firm foundation for Singapore’s heritage that will guide as well into the future.
