**What the role is**
The Singapore Botanic Gardens (SBG) is one of the oldest tropical botanic gardens and one of only three botanic gardens in the world inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has extensive living and herbarium collections from Singapore and other parts of Southeast Asia.
The SBG library and archives include more than 2,000 botanical paintings, as well as hundreds of sketches, line drawings and photographs. Since March 2021, a selection of the best and most representative artworks in the Gardens’ collections has been on display at the Botanical Art Gallery.
Located within the Gallop Extension, the Botanical Art Gallery highlights the vital role that art plays in the scientific documentation of plants in Singapore and the region, as well as how art can inspire renewed appreciation of the natural world around us. The artworks are displayed on rotation to offer the public a varied experience as well as to ensure their long-term preservation by limiting their exposure to light. The Gallery also features changing exhibitions that complement the Gardens’ permanent artwork collection.
Another location within the Gardens with outreach and connecting plants and people as its aims is the Centre for Ethnobotany. Situated adjacent to the Ethnobotany Garden, the two-storey Centre houses interpretive exhibitions and artefacts which showcase traditional knowledge and customs from the region about plants and the ways in which they have been used by people.
