The best face masks by local artists

If you missed Art Encounters' travelling residency featuring Rizman Putra at the Malay Heritage Centre (MHC) last year, which came in the form of a black-light drawing installation that paid homage to the historic roots of Kampong Glam and its vibrant contemporary life, here's good news. You can now relive the magic of his work with this limited-edition series of face masks featuring the artist's illustration in its signature bold neon colours. 

Every mask you purchase lends critical support to help keep Art Outreach's public education programmes running at a time when funding for the arts is scarce. Additionally, for each mask sold, $1 will be pledged to the SGUnited fund through Giving.sg.
