The Substation is Singapore's oldest independent contemporary arts centre, and we've been around since 1990. We support art forms of all sorts, and we've have presented some of the most exciting and important works from Singapore's artists, performers, and writers.
Opening exhibition for The Substation Gallery (1990)
One of our most important and versatile spaces is The Substation Gallery. Apart from the visual arts, our gallery has hosted all kinds of events, ranging from music concerts, to performance art, to film installations. Since its earliest days, The gallery has borne witness to milestone performances such as 'Journey of a Yellow Man' by Cultural Medallion recipient Lee Wen, and continues to present work by the next generation of contemporary artists who are eager to push the boundaries of art making.
One of the first performances of 'Journey of a Yellow Man' by Lee Wen in Singapore. (1993)
'Hall of Mirrors' by Bruce Quek (2011). The work was later recommissioned by the Singapore Art Museum.
'Performing Coloniality' by Kin Chui (2013)
Due to the huge range of art events that have taken place in our gallery, the space is continually pushed to its physical limits. While our technical team works hard to keep the gallery in the best possible condition, the space is badly in need of a major overhaul.
As a non-profit organisation, The Substation has a very lean building maintenance budget. In order to renovate The Substation Gallery, we need YOUR help, so that this space can continue to support emerging Singapore artists, and do its part to help develop the Singapore arts scene.
Out of the SGD$30,000 that we will need to renovate the gallery, we hope to raise at least SGD$4,500 through this crowdfunding campaign. We aim to raise the majority of the funds through a fundraising exhibition at The Substation Gallery, where Singapore artists have donated over 40 artworks towards this cause. If you would like to have a look at the works for sale for the fundraising exhibition, visit www.substation.org/septfest.
We've worked with some of Singapore's most well-known artists to come up with some very special rewards for supporters of this campaign. Visit our rewards page for full details, or our website for more information on each of the rewards.

展馆的可利用率十分有限，由于频繁的大规模的艺术活动在艺术馆展出。展馆仍急需大修，尽管技术人员努力维护展馆的设施条件。
作为一家非营利机构， SUBSTATION有非常有限的维护成本。 为了更新SUBSTATION艺术馆，我们需要你的帮助，以至于让这样一个艺术空间能继续支持冉冉升起的新加坡艺术家， 并且在专业那个一个空间领域，艺术馆能促使新加坡艺术风景的发展。
除了30，000新币的翻新艺术馆，我们希望通过众筹得活动， 至少融资4，500新币。 我们旨在通过在SUBSTATION 艺术馆的融资大会融到大部分的资金， 新加坡的艺术家已经捐赠了40个艺术作品。 如果你希望看看这些融资会上销售的作品，请看网站。 www.substation.org/septfest.

风险挑战
如果我们此次筹资能够成功，翻新会在2015年3月着手。我们预测这项工作需要一个月时间。
这意味着对于SUBSTATION来说，是一个收入的损失，但是如果我们继续用一个全新的艺术馆来服务艺术群体还是值得得。

How The Funds Will Be Used
Renovations for The Substation Gallery will cost SGD$30,000. To reach this goal, we will be raising funds through this crowdfunding campaign, and a fundraising exhibition in September 2014.
The funds will be used as follows:
SGD$15,000 - Hack and replace the gallery's floor with cement screed
SGD$15,000 - Hack and replace the gallery's walls with more durable materials to withstand constant drilling and patching.

The Challenges
If we should meet our target, renovations will commence in March 2015. We anticipate that the work will take about a month to complete. This will mean a heavy loss of revenue for The Substation, but will ultimately be worth it if we can continue to serve the arts community with a brand new gallery!
