Synopsis
The Heritage Conservation Centre (HCC) is the centralised repository and conservation facility for the management and preservation of Singapore’s National Collection.
HCC supports the exhibitions and manages the collections of all 9 NHB museums as well as National Gallery Singapore & Singapore Art Museum.
Our team of specialists will walk you through their processes, peppering their sharings with their own experiences hunched over great rolls of ancient textiles and scrolls, and historic everyday objects.
The goal? Protect them from being further ravaged by the passing of time.
The roughly 2-hour tour provides a peek into some of the treasures in the Centre’s storerooms and a window into the state-of-the-art conservation technology and practices in play.
