The Old Parliament House now known as the Arts House at the Old Parliament building, is a building in Singapore. It is currently a multi-disciplinary arts venue which plays host to art exhibitions and concerts. Converted into an arts and heritage venue in 2004, the Old Parliament House was renamed and launched as The Arts House.

If any guest is interested in the way the building has evolved, they can visit the “Corridors of Time” photo exhibition on the second Floor. The pictures in this gallery trace its conversion from a courthouse to a parliament house, and pays tribute to the people who contributed to Singapore’s growth. The new building are a 170-seat auditorium, a library, range of meeting and IT rooms and media facilities, a dining room, a 100-seat public cafeteria and even a gymnasium. Car parking is available below ground, leaving much valuable space above to include lush landscaping and a 2,770 square meter garden.
