GGRAsia – Slideshow | Sands for Singapore Festival

Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands casino resort organised the second edition of its Sands for Singapore Festival between August 1 to 3 to raise funds for local charities
As part of the festival, the Marina Bay Sands skating rink was transformed into a giant interactive playground for children and families with ‘Tangle’, a part visual arts installation, part performance and part playground
Close to 100 art lovers and shopping fans congregated for a good cause at The Art of Shopping’s live auction of artful merchandise and installations created by local contemporary artists
Hotel guests and visitors also did their part for charity as the weekend’s takings from the Sands SkyPark Observation Deck, ArtScience Museum and other attractions were donated to charity too
The Sands for Singapore Festival raised over SGD3.8 million (US$3 million) to benefit more than 80 charities and 300,000 Singaporeans, according to a press release from Marina Bay Sands
