Matchmade in Art

"Matchmade in Art" is the first-of-its-kind singles dating event in Singapore!

 

The power of art

 

Art enables you to find yourself and understand others.  "Matchmade in Art" uses this #powerofart to help you find your partner from paintings. 

 

When you share your thoughts and feelings from looking at a painting, you create natural conversations and connect with each other in a fun and unpretentious way.

 

Instead of questions such as "What do you do in your free time?", conversations will flow from "I like this painting because it reminds me of my holidays in Bali."  In this way, you can learn about each other's interests, and even personality, without going through a rigid checklist.

 

Let the power of art work its magic for you!

 

But I don't know anything about art

 

Don't worry!  There will be a simple introduction on how to look at paintings at the beginning of the session so that everyone will be equipped with a few tips.

 

Also, no drawing is involved!  You just need to look at the paintings and share your thoughts and feelings about them - nothing technical, fancy or arty. 

 

So, you don't need to know anything about art to join. In fact, you will leave the session with some knowledge of art, and hopefully with a cupid arrow too!

 

"Matchmade in Art" program outline

 

"Matchmade in Art" is a one hour session, long enough to get an initial feel of each other for follow-up dates and short enough to "endure" if things turn out uncomfortable!

 

The session is held at the art gallery that has plenty of paintings from our local artists and is facilitated by our experienced gallery manager.  

 

We will start with a brief talk on "How to look at paintings" before we progress to a short tour of the paintings, and the next segment of getting-to-know-each-other as you share your thoughts and feelings of the paintings in small groups. 

 

The session will conclude with a closing, and you are encouraged to proceed with dinner with your new found friends at the many eateries in the mall where the gallery is located.
