One random day in May 2019, Jae, founder of Artify Studio, was walking around the kampung glam when she saw groups of seniors loitering around the area. They were lying on benches and staring into space, seemingly daydreaming. She wondered: why not channel this energy into art? It is a beautiful way to pass time and age gracefully.
She decided to walk into Peace-Connect Cluster Operator (PeCCO), a nearby senior activity centre, and had a random meeting with the Cluster Manager of PeCCO on the same day. With her vision of these group of seniors leading their own hobby group, and equipped with her imaginary website of hope, she shared her dreams of creating an art community in the senior activity centre by conducting art classes.
We’re moving one tribe at a time, be it seniors or children. It will be a growing community filled with love and kampong spirit and we hope that you can be a part of this journey.
