About this Event
New Everyday Life, By Design (NELBD) takes you on a journey across 17 North East Line MRT stations and two hubs. Through stories and experiences along the way, familiar parts of everyday life take on a new light.
From 14 November to 6 December, NELBD public programmes will be held every weekend at Temasek Shophouse (Impact Hub) and Punggol Digital District (Innovation Hub).
At Temasek Shophouse, explore projects that respond to real needs, from how we move and navigate to how we age, recover, play, and care.
NELBD public programmes are available at $5 ($6.80 incl. GST and platform fees) per participant. Upon attendance, attendees will receive a partial refund covering the base ticket price and GST. The S$1.24 Eventbrite platform fee is non-refundable.
