The museum has designated the first Saturday of each month (9am to 11am) and the first and third Thursdays of each month (9am to 12 noon) as Quiet Mornings. All galleries will be open from 9am (as compared to usual opening hours from 10am).
On Quiet Mornings, group visits are restricted to seniors, the special needs community and children from Special Education schools.
Visitors who would appreciate a quieter and more relaxing environment are welcome to visit the museum during Quiet Mornings.

If you wish to organise a group visit on a Quiet Morning, please write in to nhb_nm_schools@nhb.gov.sg.
If you are planning to organise a group visit to the museum on a non-Quiet Morning date, please visit our Group Visits page for resources and instructions on how to do so.
