Description: Experience Singapore Literature is NLB’s initiative to create an accessible platform for the showcase of Singapore Literature. We believe that literature is best encountered and remembered through experience, and have adopted an experiential approach towards the delivery of this suite of programmes. With the theme ‘Uncovering Singapore’, discover and learn more about local literary content through a set of immersive experiences and inspirations. Each episode will feature different topics rich in experiences and significant information leading to the uncovering of Singapore. Each episode will be exclusive and personally curated for a first-hand experience. On top of these core episodes, a range of literature programme by local writers will also be conducted to generate a critical mass on the promotion of local content, and simply, to promote and make known Singapore Literature.
