Converging The Arts, Business and Philanthropy
The Foundation for The Arts and Social Enterprise is an IPC arts charity registered in Singapore. It is set up as a private sector-led and government-supported platform to develop and promote arts projects and socially-oriented initiatives.
Engaging the arts, business and community, The Foundation is project-driven, making modest, focused investments that will lead to high impact initiatives, leveraging on the influence and resources of The Foundation’s patrons.
The Foundation’s initiatives are aligned with the nation’s ambition to be a global arts hub bringing Singapore forward from a First World Economy to a First World Society.

The Arts of Commissioning
One of The Foundation’s key thrusts is the export of Singapore arts which depends greatly on the creation of original works by Singapore artists. To grow the canon of original Singapore art, the Foundation will launch the Arts of Commissioning with the Music Commissioning Series – a 10-year project that aims to champion and commission high-quality musical works by Singapore composers.

Singapore Music Showcase
Part of The Foundation’s mission is to build arts capabilities in Singapore as well as manage and develop a portfolio of local music artistes at a more strategic level. This involves taking an interventionist approach in helping our local artistes break into the international market.
