Everton Park is a charming HDB estate known for its inviting under-the-block cafés, picturesque heritage shophouses, and art galleries. Now adding on to that list is Around Gallery, a newly opened space where you can find works of local artists in the form of t-shirts, prints, stickers, and small knick-knacks. Founded by two artists Cheryl and Angeline, this cosy space provides a platform for local artists to exhibit their work. Occasional exhibitions also take place, offering visitors the opportunity to uncover new and exciting artists.
One of Singapore's oldest residential estates, Everton Park was constructed in 1965 and housed the Singapore Harbour Board staff until its renovation in 1979. It's separated into two rows of flats, blocks 1-3 and 4-6. Today, Everton Park has transformed into an area with a charm of its own – and the home of 2022's coolest street. The estate and the surrounding Spottiswoode area is brimming with character – with cafes, spas, boutiques, pottery studios and art galleries calling the area home. Not to mention the heritage street murals that can be found around every street corner.
