The future of The Substation: A timeline of events (Updated) | ArtsEquator Thinking and Talking about Arts and Culture in Southeast Asia Articles The Substation Facebook Page March 9, 2021 By Ke Weiliang, with assistance from Nabilah Said Last updated: 12 Nov 2021 ArtsEquator has compiled a timeline of events that details recent developments surrounding the future of The Substation. The timeline – displayed in chronological order – begins from late 2017 when the National Arts Council (NAC) first informed The Substation of its decision to renovate the premises at 45 Armenian Street, and tentatively concludes with the Parliament discussion around arts spaces that took place on 8 March 2021. We hope that the timeline as it is now will bring some perspective to the discourse around both the future of The Substation and arts spaces in Singapore in general, especially in this present moment when opinions are being generated at a stichomythic rate.
