Event : A Special Trip to the ACM
Location : Asian Civilisation Museum, Raffles Place
Time : Friday, 7-9.30pm
Date : 19, 26 Feb or 5 Mar
Museum Admission Fee : $5
Program Fees : Paid in full by the 12 baskets of left-over bread in the feeding of the 5 thousand
Broad Overview :
1) This is the first round of a pilot project to extend meaningful program for healthy singles to participate in activities that both contributes back to society while providing avenue for enjoyment and socialiation.
2) The event hope to bring 10-15 boys from the Boys Home to the ACM. It aims to enrich their understanding via the various wonderous artifacts and introduce the sophisticated cultures and peoples behind those objects. It will provide an experience very different from the museum visits by yourself or the general tours conducted by curators. The program will cover only 1 out of the 4 major galleries, or may choose to focus on an up-coming special exhibition - Ramayana, or captures one central theme that strings various galleries together. Actual program will be taken care of by the organiser.
3) This event will combine equal number of working professionals with equal number of boys. We hope that working professionals who are willing to sponsor a boy to visit the museum will step forward. Should we be successful to negotiate for ACM to allow free admission for the boys, participants just need to pay their own admission fee if any.
4) Both sponsor and sponcee will be participants with no priviledge granted to either. All will have very equal opportunity to interact with the group, to express ideas, and know the other person as well as let the other party know you. Feedback from prior groups catering to professional adults were very positive.
5) Dates are still being negotiated but will likely fall on one of the above or a Sat afternoon. There will be 2 get together sessions for briefing and letting participants get acquanted first. The first will be held this sat late evening.

4) There is likely a quota for equal gender representation from the professional adults group which will generate varied ideas and balance perspective during the program.
