Our History
Asian Art Association Singapore

The Asian Art Association Singapore was established.
2019
The "Asia Festival Singapore (AFS)" was held at the UCC, National University of Singapore. Singaporean Member of Parliament Lim Wee Kiak, famous Singaporean director Jack Neo and well-known Hong Kong cultural figure Chip Tsao served as guests of honor and presented awards.
2020 to Present
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we held the "World Charity Painting Competition" and "World Charity Painting Exhibition", which gradually became an international art competition with great influence, with nearly 10,000 participants. Singaporean MP Anthea Ong, Hong Kong Legislative Council Member James To Kun-sun, Taiwan Legislator (current Taipei Mayor) Chiang Wan-an, Malaysian MP Tan Hong Pin, Ukrainian Ambassador to Singapore Kateryna Zelenko and other celebrities were pleased to give speeches for the event. Partnering organizations include the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the Singapore Red Cross, etc.
2022 to Present
We have been authorized by Taiwan's United Daily News to host the Singapore and Malaysia divisions of the "United Chinese Literary Award". The competition attracts more than 400,000 participants every year, covering Taiwan and mainland China. With our promotion, the competition has gone beyond Greater China for the first time, and will be further expanded to Japan and Thailand in 2025, moving towards a broader international stage.
2022 to Present
Relying on strong artistic resources, we have established competitions for professional musical instruments such as guzheng, erhu, pipa, and piano, and invited music masters and professors from well-known art universities from all over the world to serve as judges. Each contestant not only has the opportunity to obtain an authoritatively recognized award certificate, but also a professional comment certificate written by the judges themselves - this is an important highlight of our unique competition, which is deeply favored by the contestants and has become an honor that many music learners and art candidates are competing for.
2024 to Present
We have long been committed to promoting public welfare and talent cultivation in the arts. The registered artist system provides a certification and display platform for professionals, and together they participate in teaching, performances and cross-border exchanges to build a warm and influential art network. We have launched Volunteer Education in Arts program for refugee schools in Malaysia to allow out-of-school children to feel hope through art. We have established an Art Volunteer platform to encourage young artists to participate in community service and public welfare projects. Our "Planet YoungArt" project focuses on youth art education and discovers future stars.
2025
With the support of the National Parks Board of Singapore, we held a three-month "Wild City Painting and Photography Exhibition" at the 160-year-old World Cultural Heritage Site, the Singapore Botanic Gardens. The exhibition received strong support from the French Embassy in Singapore and was widely reported by mainstream media such as Singapore's AsiaOne and Taiwan's Central News Agency.
