Is there a free tour at the Singapore Art Museum?
Yes, SAM's docents give a free 60-minute guided tour of the exhibitions. Tours run during museum hours and vary daily with the docent on duty, so approach the ticketing counter for the day's route or to join one. We'd ask when you buy your ticket, before you start on the galleries.

Can I take photos at the Singapore Art Museum?
Yes, still photography and video are allowed for personal, non-commercial use, but flash, tripods and camera extension poles are not. Commercial and professional shoots need approval and are limited to the lobby and the level 1 corridor, never the galleries. A Calm Space on level 1, next to SIP at SAM, is open for visitors who need a sensory break.
