The Singapore Art-Health Study

The Singapore A-Health Intervention spanned 12 weeks, with each weekly session lasting for two hours. The program is structured around three thematic domains of the past, present, and future. In each thematic domain consisting of four weeks, participants were tasked with creating an artwork related to the theme and incorporating the learned art techniques. The structure of each thematic domain follows the same structure: the first week involved a 45-minute docent-led gallery tour on three selected pieces of artworks, followed by a 75-minute artist-led brainstorming session where participants were introduced to the techniques and discuss ideas on the artwork to be created. The subsequent three sessions involved further guidance from the artist and a scaffolded delivery of art techniques for participants to incorporate their learning to their artwork. At the end of each domain, there was a showcase where participants present their artwork.
