Photography
The Photography group offers members an opportunity to explore Singapore through photography. We aim to offer monthly walks exploring Singapore’s rich heritage and culture, modern architecture, nature, and neighborhoods. Everyone comes away with fantastic photo memories of our meanders through the red dot. The co-chairs Carol and Londa recon the walks to make sure they find great vantage points, street life photo opportunities, local art works, and even some off-the-beaten track meanders. Both co-chairs bring their love of photography, their enthusiasm, and their expertise to discover Singapore on these walks. And, let’s not forget our after-the-walk-coffee!
The photography group welcomes both phone and camera users to explore Singapore through photography. It's FREE, it's social - come photograph Singapore!
Schedule:
Monthly walks, dates vary
Fees:
No fees unless required for guides, venue entrance etc

Writer's Group
We welcome beginners and seasoned, published and unpublished writers alike. Our members write flash fiction, short stories, poetry, essays, articles, memoirs, and, of course, that greatest novel of the 21st Century that refuses to write itself.
We share our work and provide insights and feedback in a friendly and constructive manner. If you are not yet ready to share your masterpieces, that is OK, too. We can always use an unbiased pair of ears, and you may get in the groove!
We arrange our meetings and chat via a members only WhatsApp group (renewed annually).
