Living Storybook

​Cuifen Pui and Dorcas Tang have been working hard, going to different communities and co-creating artworks to add to Boon Lay Nature Garden. BLNG is one of 3 community-centered gardens in Jurong Central Park, where people get to encounter and experiment with nature-based gardening practices outside of their everyday experiences. It is also one of the nature spaces that Cuifen tends to around Singapore!

​Dorcas first visited Boon Lay Nature Garden when they were taking visual references for their co-authored children’s book, “The Three Hungry Microbes”.

​Many of the illustrations inside the book are inspired by this particular garden, including the trees, flowers, animals, etc. So one day, Cuifen suggested for us to do the reverse - why not they bring the garden to life through the magic of stories too?

​Be amongst the first people to experience Living Storybook, where the outdoor garden is transformed into a whimsical, adventure-filled space filled with little magical moments to find. There will be storytime, a lookout for artworks in the garden, a nature mandala activity, and a large community artwork at the end where you can doodle things that have inspired you throughout the session.
