StoryFest 2023 organised by Arts House Limited and The Storytelling Centre Limited presents
Story Walk an outdoor roving storytelling experience in partnership with Civic District’s new
public art trail Benchmarks. Rediscover a side of the Singapore River as you stroll (and sit!)
while listening to tales told by storytellers.
Story Walk takes participants on an imaginative storytelling journey inspired by some of our
most iconic monuments and public spaces. Taking cues from three commissioned public art
benches each storyteller will share a unique tale weaving local history with folklore. These
tales bring to light the interconnectedness between the bench artworks their surroundings
and the rich heritage of the district.
Pause ponder and play! Complete the inspiring journey by exploring your creativity through a
paper-folding activity. Embellish your designs with linocut prints and take home your own mini
art bench. Discover SingLit literary gems printed on the back of your original sketch postcard.
Story Walk is conceptualised by Kamini Ramachandran featuring stories created by Verena Tay.
These stories are brought to life by storytellers Wesley Leon Aroozoo Laura Kee and Hafiz
Rashid. The craft activity includes original sketches by Victor Emmanuel and Stellah Lim.
Families with children (ages 6 – 8 years) are recommended to attend the morning sessions
whilst the evening sessions are tailored for adult participants.
A digital iteration of the programme will also be available next January as part of Light to
Night 2024. Stay tuned for updates!
