1. Cape of Good Hope Gallery - This gallery is run by Mr Terence Teo and Monica. Deals mainly with 2nd generation Singapore artists. Mr Terence Teo being an artist himself has a good understanding of what the artist needs to do to improve oneself and also knows what the gallery has to do for both collectors and artists.
