The Business Times and The Arts House share a common belief that every artistically gifted child in Singapore should be given the opportunity to develop that talent.
The lack of money should not hinder talent and The Business Times Budding Artists Fund (BT BAF) was initiated to level the playing field, because no child with strong interest and artistic potential should be deprived of the opportunity to develop his or her talents because of his or her family's financial background.
Opened this November 2008, The Little Arts Academy (LAA) is an initiative of the Business Times Budding Artists Fund (BT BAF) and will provide equal opportunity for all children to be fully engaged in the arts.
Offering professional training in dance, drama, new media, visual arts, music and singing, The Budding Artists Academy will provide long-term, comprehensive, arts training programmes to nurture and develop the talents of children between five and 12 years of age.
