About this Event
The Illustration Arts Festival (IAF) returns this year in a landmark celebration as part of the 10th anniversary of OIC Singapore. As Singapore’s leading independent festival dedicated to the vibrant world of illustration, this special edition continues OIC Singapore’s commitment to championing creativity shaped entirely by human hands, imagination, and lived experience. In an era of rapidly evolving AI, the festival reaffirms the value of authentic artistic expression, where every line, texture, and story is crafted by artists themselves.
This year, IAF brings together more than 260 participating artists from 16 countries, forming a diverse international creative community that fosters rich cultural exchange and collaboration across the region.
The festival also proudly features artists from our partner networks, including
- Co-curators FLABSLAB, Tell Your Children, and Gofy
- Southeast Asia Illustration Council, with artist exchange initiatives involving BKKIF (Bangkok Illustration Fair) and KLIF (Kuala Lumpur Illustration Fair)
