Teddy Bears are coming to town! Lots of hand-crafted teddy bears will be staying at The Arts House this November as international-award winning soft sculpture artists gather here to showcase their latest collections.

When The Singapore Teddy Bear Show 2008 (STBS 2008) comes around, it will draw the attention of sophisticated collectors and discerning hobbyists from around the world.

In its second year, The Singapore Teddy Bear Show 2008 promises to wow you with the usual favourites alongside new attractions and highlights. International award-winning artists will be showcasing their signature creations, and through their distinctive designs, show you why their works are so coveted. Discerning collectors will also appreciate the fact that the organizers have brought in the limited edition STEIFF Japan Teddy, handcrafted by German craftsmen, using only the highest quality alpaca.

This year’s theme, "A Bear Perspective", opens up the world of the teddy bear, fur and all, to reveal multiple dimensions from which to love the simple teddy bear. At one level, the art of bear making is a craft that challenges the most seasoned artist to develop individual styles and techniques. On another level, the teddy bear is a delightful companion that easily charms both children and adults alike. The artists have added a further dimension this time through collaboration with The Little Arts Academy, by contributing part of their proceeds to help disadvantaged children get a fair shot at life through an art education.
