We 'met' Walter at the entrance who will be here welcoming all visitors from now till 30th September. This weekend (17th-18th Sept), you can take cute pictures of your kiddos with Walter using your smartphone and get an instant printout! (Free prints for the 1st 200)
Denver & Gladys posing with Walter.
Upon stepping into the gallery, you will notice a huge model of Marina Bay. You can read and learn more about each architect as it lights up with a touch of your hand on the respective panel. From Esplanade, Marina Bay Sands, to the Merlion and Sports Hub. Denver & Gladys only find it interesting and cool to see the lights. :p
More fun activities is located on level 2 of the Gallery. You won't miss noticing a panel of photos showing Walter in all the fun and familiar places around Singapore... HDB flats, petrol kiosk, cinema, shophouses etc.
Visitors (young and old) can join in the art competition and stand to win a prize. We participated except Gladys whom has been grouchy not satisfied with her drawings. There are also art & craft activities like making a bunny hat, bookmark, origami bunny and doing crossword puzzles, maze etc.
The National Library Board's Junior Reading Ambassadors (JRA) also put up a nice story reading session filling us with stories relating to Bunnies. It was fun and interesting and the JRAs did an impressive job. :)
Too busy to visit the library and interested to read more books? NLB has setup a mobile library at the City Gallery. Borrow 4 books and you can get 10% off Walter's merchandises. Borrow 6 books and you'll get a free folder.
It has been a fun-filled day at the Marina Bay City Gallery with Walter and all the activities relating to Bunnies. Gladys got a free bunny hairband, Denver got a free folder for borrowing 6 books and they brought back paper crafts.
As a side note, you can also sign up for the free daily guided tours (11.30 am and 4.00 pm) where the guides will bring you on a 30-minutes Walking Tour along the Waterfront Promenade.
