You may also download the museum's Social Story to prepare your children and students with additional needs for a trip to the museum. This social story shares information on things that they may see, hear and find while exploring our spaces.
Admission into the Permanent Galleries is free for Citizens and Permanent Residents as well as teachers, students and staff from local government schools. Admission charges will apply for accompanying non-Singaporean and non-Permanent Resident adults who are not part of the school's faculty. Admission charges may also apply for all visitors into Special Exhibitions. Please refer to Admissions for definitions and details of admission charges.
