Programming

CFA’s Talent Development and Programming division forges new possibilities for creative development and exploration through performing arts, masterclasses and conferences while NUS Museum and NUS Baba House host exhibitions, tours, module collaborations and more in an active, year-round calendar.

“What differentiates our programming is in our DNA as part of NUS. If we want to influence the future by changing the way people think about things, we look for issues that matter to the students. Then the students explore these with unconventional ‘partners’ such as artists charting new territories and faculties and research institutes whose work provides different ‘lenses’ to look through. Challenge, collaboration and experimentation – people are drawn to that somehow.”

Education is at the heart of CFA’s programming; incorporating faculty into the creative process links our major platforms to new and challenging ideas that are outside of participants’ chosen disciplines. In this way CFA programming contributes to the educational outcomes of NUS; whether its driving collaborators to reconsider their work in through different mediums, presenting exploratory ideas for scrutiny in NUS Museum’s prep-room or beyond.
