Discover more
about the ornate NUS Baba House through an hour long tour! You will be
transported to a Straits Chinese family home in the 1920s, furnished with
heirlooms from the Wee family (the previous owners of the house) and other
donors. Artefacts at the NUS Baba House are displayed in their original
context. In the master bedroom, for example, a set of red-and-gold bridal beds
survives intact.
The third floor
has been converted to an art gallery and hosts exhibitions, encouraging academic researchers and
art practitioners to explore fresh perspectives into an evolving discourse on
the Straits Chinese, and to develop insights into cultural encounters,
hybridity and their contemporary implications.
