Support Our Exhibitions
Corporate support helps the National Museum of Singapore present exceptional and high-quality exhibitions that will continually inspire and engage society. Our special exhibitions enable us to not only expound on our National Collection through innovative ways, but also bring world-class exhibits to Singapore.
You can support us in the following ways:
- Cash Sponsorship
- In-Kind Sponsorship for products and services that can elevate the visitor experience.
Your support is essential to the work that we do. Your contribution allows us to continue to present exciting exhibitions and offerings to our visitors and future generations.
The museum also works with partners on our community programmes to engage all segments of the community in presenting our heritage.

Capital Campaign for Revamp
The National Museum of Singapore is revamping its permanent galleries from 2024 to 2026. This revamp will allow us to continue to preserve our stories for many generations, and present new approaches to storytelling. These include the use of relevant multimedia technologies to connect with visitors, and the museum’s latest direction in documenting Singapore’s contemporary history.
To support these efforts, the museum is raising capital from individuals, foundations and corporations who believe in our vision to inspire the public with stories of Singapore and the world. There are several ways you can support the museum:
Adopt an Artefact
The ‘Adopt An Artefact’ initiative was established to raise monies for the enhancement of our museum’s Life in Singapore galleries on Level 2.
The Life in Singapore galleries augment the content presented in the Singapore History Gallery by “zooming in” to what life in Singapore was like, with a stronger focus on the personal stories of regular Singaporeans. They present snapshots of everyday life in Singapore throughout the different eras in our history.
This is a unique opportunity for partners and patrons who can support this refresh by adopting one of our museum's artefacts through a donation. Artefacts for adoption have been curated from the Singapore History Gallery based on their historic significance and rich provenance. The artefacts are presented in three categories: Our Star Artefact, Our National Treasures & Our Singapore Stories.
Please refer to the PDF catalogue below for the list of artefacts for adoption* and donor privileges.

*The Singapore Stone, the Revere Bell and the Ning Yeung Wui Kuan Bell have been adopted
Make your Mark on Site
Marked Historic Sites are places of historical significance where important events or personalities are commemorated to serve as reminders of our history. Although the original buildings may no longer remain, their stories continue to be told through their heritage markers, which contain interesting nuggets of information on the history of the site.
The site markers at the National Museum reveal the stories of different sites within the museum’s grounds and building, teaching visitors about the museum’s history and key architectural features.
There are a total of 11 site markers, four of which are located outdoors. The site markers are available for adoption for 3, 5 or 10 years at a donation of $110,000, $165,000 and $250,000 respectively. All funds raised will go directly towards the revamp of our museum’s permanent galleries and the preservation of our historic building.
