The Twelfth Day of Riḍván celebrates the appearance of Bahá’u’lláh and His Revelation as a new chapter in human history. It is a time of great joy and is also when elections of the Spiritual Assemblies – nine-member governing councils at the national and local levels – take place. The evening encouraged all to reflect on the path the community has taken in the last 75 years and will continue to forge as it learns to contribute to the social, material and spiritual growth of Singapore.

In celebration of SG60 and the 75th Anniversary of the Bahá’í Faith in Singapore, the festival uses the arts as a meeting ground that fosters dialogue, builds understanding, and invites collective imagination and aspirations about our shared future. Through visual art and installations, music, poetry, dance and movement-based work, workshops and live performances, G.L.U.E.D. Arts Festival will be an opportunity to reflect on themes of social cohesion, the building of vibrant communities and the role of youth in shaping inclusive futures.
