An hour at the Asian Civilisations Museum on Indonesian textile history — bark cloth, looms and gender — for S$10 on 4 Nov 2026.
Indonesian textile history gets a dedicated hour at the Asian Civilisations Museum on Wednesday 4 Nov 2026, under the museum's ACM Conversations series. The session takes bark cloth, looms and gender as its three strands, tracing how cloth is made and what it has meant. It runs 7pm to 8pm, so the whole thing fits neatly into an evening.
Tickets are S$10. The museum is on Empress Place, and the talk starts at 7pm sharp and ends at 8pm — enough time afterwards for a proper conversation about it over dinner. One for anyone who has stood in front of a woven piece and wanted the story behind it, or who works with textiles and wants the historical grounding.
