Pop by The Arts House for a curated Indonesian-focused programme as part of the Singapore Writers Festival 2015. A nation of 17,000 odd islands that began its journey as a modern state 70 years ago, Indonesia carries millennia of historical weight, contradictions and resolution. Expend your creativity and take part in programmes including a keynote speech, panel discussions and performances featuring renowned and award-winning authors and performers like Goenawan Mohamad, Agustinus Wibowo and Ubiet.

17,000 Islands Dreaming is happening at The Arts House from Friday, 30 October 2015 to Monday, 9 November 2015 at various times. Tickets are required, available via [SISTIC](http://sistic.com.sg/).

Gary is one of those proverbial jack of all trades… you know the rest. When not writing about lifestyle and culture, he dabbles in photography, graphic design, plays four instruments and is a professional wearer of bowties. His greatest weakness: spending more money on clothes than he probably should. Find him across the social world as @grimlay
