The Museum Volunteers (MVs) group is recruiting English and Tamil guides to take visitors around the Indian Heritage Centre (IHC) on weekends and public holidays.
Apart from tours of the Permanent Gallery, Special Exhibitions and Community Exhibitions, they will have to guide people on the Little India Heritage trail.
You could be an MV if you:
• Have a passion for the history, art and culture of the Indian community in Singapore
• Have a keen interest in continuous learning
• Enjoy meeting people
“We need more English-speaking weekend guides for the IHC’s permanent galleries and the special exhibition Ente Veedu, My Home: Malayalees In Singapore,” said Ms K. Bhavani, IHC MV Coordinator.
“We are also keen to find guides who could do the tours in Tamil.”
Training will be conducted every Saturday morning from Feb 3 to April 13 by subject experts, curators, community leaders and senior MVs.
Submit your application to ihcmvtrg@gmail.com by Jan 22.
A briefing will be held on Jan 20 from 10am to 11am at the Indian Heritage Centre in Campbell Lane.
The MV group provides free tours in English to the public on weekends and public holidays at the National Museum of Singapore, Asian Civilisations Museum, The Peranakan Museum, Singapore Art Museum, Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall, Malay Heritage Centre and IHC.
