Forget about staying quiet in museums! CHAT’s summer exhibition, Weave and Shout!, turns museum spaces into exciting, creative playgrounds. Using everyday objects like thread and yarn, artists from Australia, Hong Kong and Indonesia invite you not only to experience art but also to become part of it. You can touch, create sounds, play and even weave onto Slow Art Collective’s eco-friendly structures. You can reimagine school by walking through Chan Wai Lap’s memory-filled yet whimsically reflective installations. You can also see household items come alive as animals and landscapes through the vivid storytelling of Agus Nur Amal PM Toh.

This interactive exhibition welcomes everyone – from children to adults – to have fun, make noise and freely express themselves. Visit CHAT to chase away boredom and stress!
