Constructed out of former shipping containers, the Greenfield Modular Studios (better known as Block O) will see some of Goodman's resident artists open their studios for an artmaking extravaganza filled with back-to-back workshops and performances galore. Visitors will get to explore the use of a variety of mediums ranging from alginate, batik, charcoal to chalk!

The exciting lineup includes Storytelling Centre Ltd., Traditional Arts Centre (Singapore), Paper Monkey Theatre and the cast from Little Shakespeare.
