From famous characters like Mickey Mouse to old-time favourite movies like The Lion King (1994)to Moana (2016), delve into behind-the-scenes of the renowned Walt Disney Animation Studios and be amazed at the capabilities and advancements of animation.

Who said that Valentine's Day is only for couples? We also have a Valentine's Day workshop for some parent-child bonding in February. Enable your child to continue learning about animation through Scratch, offered in our weekly classes! If you are a teen, aspire to be a change-maker by learning app development or Python.

If you haven't checked out our January techtivity at Gardens by the Bay, it's still open (until 15 March)!
