This first-of-its-kind 3-day event will feature Filipino artist A.G. Saño in creating a mural in the heart of Singapore highlighting the beauty and intelligence of the dolphins, as part of his quest to paint 23,000 dolphins around the world. Local artists including Skope from renowned creative firm, ARTKORE, will be putting hands together in completing the mural.

This mural painting event in Singapore will be held at The Street + Market section of *SCAPE at 2 Orchard Link and will be open to members of the public to participate.
