Working together with organisations and institutions, i’mable Collective nurtures and develops a community of artists and makers with disabilities to showcase their talents and strengthen their abilities in artisanal fields.

On 4 Nov, Katy, Diana, Yvonne, Jacob and four volunteers from the Singapore Association of the Visually Handicapped (SAVH) learnt how to make the “No Sew Tote Bag” from 10 students and their teacher, Ms Eve Tan from Temasek Poly - School of Design (Official)

After this hands-on workshop, our makers and their volunteers will improvise and produce these bags for sale under the Touch Art Programme, a platform that showcases their visually impaired talents, providing them opportunities to socialise with others and employment opportunities through handicrafts.

Do support them when these tote bags go on sale 😊

International Artist’s Day on 25 Oct honours artists and their contributions. The day also celebrates one of the most famous artists, Pablo Picasso, who was born on 25 Oct 1881.

At the Collective, we nurture and develop a community of artists and makers with disabilities to showcase their talents and strengthen their abilities in artisanal fields. This multi-sectoral platform comprises partners in the people, public and private sectors who, together with persons with disabilities, are motivated to collaborate and contribute towards the development of a viable market for quality merchandise that is created by persons with disabilities, supporting their meaningful vocation.

Featuring art paintings by artists from MINDS, one of the largest and oldest Social Service Agency (SSA) in Singapore. Their MINDS Craft programme trains persons with intellectual disabilities on their creativity, enabling them to express themselves through different art forms and deliver quality products through meaningful work engagement.
