National Heritage Board (NHB) actively champions the development of a vibrant cultural and heritage sector in Singapore. We make heritage enriching, fun and accessible to all through exciting events that engage diverse audiences like the iconic Singapore HeritageFest, International Museum Day, and Istana Art Event.
NHB further promotes public awareness and appreciation of our heritage through educational, outreach and community programmes. We partner like-minded entities in the people, private and public sector and provide state-of-the-art archival and conservation services through the National Archives of Singapore and Heritage Conservation Centre.
The Singapore Collections Online (SGCOOL) website is a project developed in tandem with our Integrated Museum Collection Management System (IMCMS). As an on-demand service, IMCMS today delivers a comprehensive range of services to NHB’s museums and institutions.
SGCOOL provides a user-friendly access to IMCMS’ database of digitized artifacts and artworks. NHB’s collections, spanning objects as diverse as ceramics, photographs, prints, paintings and sculptures, are now available for the public to search and enjoy from the comfort of their homes.
