Celebrating Our Artists This Christmas As the holiday season unfolds and festive cheer fills the air, Art for Good is thrilled to kick off our Christmas celebrations by honoring the extraordinary talent of our artists—individuals with special needs and disabilities, whose creativity shines as bright as the season’s lights. More than a showcase, this initiative is a heartfelt commitment to our mission: to provide a platform for these artists to share their work, embrace their identities as creators, and feel empowered through art. We are deeply grateful to @downstown gallery for their unwavering support, which has made this celebration of resilience, creativity, and “the joy of giving” possible. Among the remarkable artists we’re proud to highlight is Chloe Chek . Chloe lives with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2 (SMA2), a rare genetic neuromuscular disorder that affects motor neurons controlling voluntary muscles. Confined to a wheelchair and navigating limited fine motor skills, Chloe has long felt different from her peers—often left out of physical education and sports activities. Yet her spirit remains unshakable: she carries a radiant, positive outlook on life and a profound love for art. For Chloe, creating is more than a hobby—it’s a way to connect with the world. Her greatest hope? To craft art that resonates with others—pieces that people will cherish, admire, and choose to bring home. Every brushstroke reflects her courage, and every artwork is a testament to her belief that her creativity can bridge differences and spread joy. We also celebrate Koh Jun Kai , an artist diagnosed with autism whose talent lies in his remarkable eye for detail and the calm art brings to his world. For Jun Kai, drawing is more than a creative outlet—it’s a lifeline. It calms his mind, helps him regulate his emotions, and allows him to express thoughts and feelings that words sometimes cannot capture. Beyond art, Jun Kai is fascinated by Lego constructions, particularly the intricate interactions of Lego Technic gears—a passion that mirrors his precision and focus as an artist. His artworks are a reflection of this meticulousness: each line, color, and composition is carefully considered, revealing a unique perspective that captivates anyone who views them. This Christmas showcase embodies “the joy of giving” in its truest form: giving our artists a stage to be seen, not for their challenges, but for their extraordinary gifts; giving audiences the chance to discover and support art with purpose; and giving these creators the empowerment that comes from knowing their work matters. Every purchase of Chloe’s heartfelt pieces or Jun Kai’s detailed creations is a gift of validation—a way to tell them, “Your art is loved, and you are valued.” As we celebrate this season of giving, we invite everyone to join us in honoring Chloe, Jun Kai, and all our artists. Their creativity reminds us that art has the power to unite, inspire, and transform—and that the greatest joy of the holidays lies in lifting others up. Thank you to @downstown gallery for standing with us, and to every person who supports our artists: your generosity doesn’t just bring Christmas cheer—it fuels a lifetime of confidence and purpose 💛🎄. Would you like to add specific details about the artworks (e.g., mediums Chloe and Jun Kai use, themes of their pieces) or include a call to action for purchasing their art to further emphasize “the joy of giving”?

On November 28th, Art for Good had the profound honour of partnering with the Rare Disorders Society (Singapore, RDSS) to host a special art therapy session titled “Colours of Hope.” More than just a creative gathering, this event was designed to create a safe, gentle space for emotional expression, reflection, and collective healing—bringing together patients living with rare disorders, their caregivers, and siblings to explore hope, strength, and connection through colour and creativity. Art therapy, as a form of expressive healing, offers unique value for communities facing physical or emotional challenges: it bypasses verbal barriers, allowing participants to communicate feelings that may be hard to put into words. For the RDSS community, this session was an opportunity to step away from the daily struggles of managing rare disorders and focus on self-expression—whether through bold brushstrokes, soft watercolour blends, or symbolic imagery. Together, we explored “what hope looks like” in tangible, creative ways: some participants painted rainbows breaking through storm clouds, others depicted sunlit gardens bursting with cherry blossoms and fireflies, and a few crafted abstract pieces of glowing hues—each work a personal testament to resilience 🌈🌸. The magic of the day lay not only in individual creation but in shared connection. Caregivers, who often prioritize others’ needs, found space to acknowledge their own emotions; siblings bonded over collaborative art-making; and patients felt seen and celebrated for their unique perspectives. What moved us most deeply was the participants’ heartfelt decision to gift their completed artworks back to RDSS—each piece now serves as a symbol of community, appreciation, and shared hope within the organization’s spaces. These artworks are more than decorations: they are reminders of the strength found in coming together, and of the healing power of creativity to unite and uplift. This session aligns with Art for Good’s core mission: to leverage art as a force for social good. Just as public art enhances community spaces and fosters belonging, targeted art therapy sessions like “Colours of Hope” address the specific emotional needs of marginalized communities—adding immeasurable value to their well-being and sense of community. We are deeply grateful to RDSS for trusting us to hold this space, and to every courageous participant who brought their authenticity, vulnerability, and strength to the canvas. Y our resilience shines through every brushstroke, and your artworks will continue to inspire hope for the entire RDSS community 💛.

June 27, 2025 In a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, art has the power to heal, empower, and connect. For Chloe Chek, a bright young girl diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2 (SMA2), crochet has become more than just a hobby—it’s a lifeline, a source of joy, and a way to share her creativity with others. Chloe has discovered the therapeutic magic of yarn and needle, transforming her challenges into beautiful, handmade creations. Finding Solace in Art Chloe’s journey with crochet began as a simple pastime, but it quickly blossomed into something far more significant. The rhythmic motion of stitching, the vibrant colors of the yarn, and the satisfaction of creating something tangible became a form of therapy for her. Despite the challenges posed by SMA2, crochet has allowed Chloe to express herself freely, build focus, and experience a sense of pride and accomplishment with every completed piece. Chloe is a participant in Art For Good’s art therapy program, where she receives support for her emotional and mental well-being. She is also part of our artist development program, which focuses on empowerment, confidence building, character development, and fostering a positive sense of identity. Chloe’s crochet work has moved beyond a personal hobby to a recognized part of her art portfolio. Chloe is learning to weave her personal experiences and resilience into each piece, turning her hobby into a form of artistic expression. A Heartfelt Collaboration with NLB Chloe’s talent didn’t go unnoticed. In a remarkable opportunity, the National Library Board (NLB) commissioned her to crochet 70 IRIS Hearts—a special project that merged her passion for crafting with a cause close to her heart. Introducing IRIS (Inclusive LibRarIes) IRIS, which stands for “Inclusive LibRarIeS”, is a purple heart icon that represents accessible programmes and services for persons with disabilities and reflects the inclusive offerings available throughout NLB libraries. Persons with disabilities, their caregivers, and the general public are encouraged to engage with IRIS activities to explore and learn more about the accessible services available in the libraries. For Chloe, this project was more than just a commission—it was a chance to contribute to a larger movement of kindness and inclusion. Each heart she crafted became a personal symbol of her dedication, stitched with love, patience, and care. A Testament to Resilience and Creativity Chloe’s story is a testament to the power of art to transcend limitations. Through crochet, she has not only found a therapeutic outlet to navigate the challenges of SMA2, but she’s also brought beauty into the world. Her collaboration with NLB highlights her growing skill and reflects the deep personal meaning woven into each piece of work. This partnership underscores the invaluable role of programs like Art For Good, which provide a nurturing space for individuals like Chloe to thrive. It is through such support that Chloe is able to share her art, not just as a hobbyist, but as an emerging artist with a unique voice. As she continues her artistic journey, Chloe hopes to inspire others facing similar struggles, showing that with passion, dedication, and support, anything is possible—one stitch at a time.
