Artist's Circle: The Cost of Creation
What does it really take to be an artist in Singapore?
Beyond the stage lies the real cost of being an artist. Burnout, self-doubt, and financial strain just to start.
Artists here are constantly balancing survival with staying true to their craft.
Let’s talk about it
The Cost of Creation is a safe space for honest conversation and collective brainstorming.
Come unpack the challenges and explore what we need to truly thrive.
This is not a complain session. Come and have a dialogue and brainstorming session for artists of all disciplines. An open, safe space to unpack the struggles we rarely get to voice—and to explore what support, systems, and collaborations we need to truly thrive.
Expect:
Honest conversations about the lived realities of working artists
Reflections on mental health, financial pressure, and sustainability
A collaborative brainstorm on how we can support each other
Creative networking with like-minded peers
