In our Singapore Home Brew segment “Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys shine a spotlight on the Museum of U & Me, a special SG60 pop-up museum at the National Museum of Singapore’s Lawn. Running from 9 October to 14 December, the exhibition invites visitors to journey through Singapore’s story told not by grand monuments, but by everyday objects donated and loaned by Singaporeans themselves.

Joining us are John Tung, Independent Curator in charge of the National Heritage Board project, and Cecilia Gaspar, a donor whose grandfather, Dioscoro Asinas San Gaspar, once played alongside a young Louis Soliano and many others. Together, they share how personal artefacts—like a retro Setron television, a brick from Alexandra Brickworks, or even Princess Diana’s measurements by designer Benny Ong—become powerful touchpoints of national memory.

With interactive digital displays, 3D-printed artefacts, and thematic sections spanning food, labour, leisure, and national development, the Museum of U & Me is designed as an accessible “first-touch” experience for all. Admission is free, making it the perfect way to connect with Singapore’s living heritage.
