Has severe RBF but is fairly jolly and carefree on the inside. Degree of life satisfaction is heavily influenced by food.

This Chinese New Year, Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC) has transformed their Rooftop Garden into a cute bunny-themed paradise filled with giant rabbit statues, nostalgia-inducing illustrations and light shows.

Titled (Tu)gether, where "tu" is the pinyin for rabbit in Chinese, the mixed-media exhibition is created by local art and design studio Whisky and Foxtrot LLP. The installations centre around three characters from CNY mythology. There's the zodiac rabbit Tu Zai, the beastly dragon Nian Mei, and Ong Lai aka pineapple.

Visitors can also join the giant rabbits as they're having fun with typical CNY activities like playing mahjong and feasting on hot pot.

On 7 Jan, 14 Jan, 28 Jan, 25 Feb and 25 Mar from 7.30pm to 8.30pm, there will be special light shows with narration of the story of Tu Zai's journey home to celebrate CNY.

(Tu)gether will be held at Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre Roof Garden from now till 31 March 2023 from 10am to 10pm daily. Admission is free.
