Arts and Aesthetics
The Arts & Aesthetics committee (A & A) aims to bring our JPFAM through a world of artistic expression—where brushes collide with blank canvases, voices echo on stage, and imagination takes the spotlight! From vibrant visual art workshops to electrifying performing arts showcases, there’s a place for every kind of creative passion.

We work towards inculcating a sense of appreciation for the arts and cultivate an aesthetic experience for the development of students’ artistic capacity. The arts to be used as a medium for self-discovery, the nurturing of inventive and creative expression as well as fostering holistic development.

Spotlight
JP Spotlight is an annual in-house talent competition showcasing the diverse talents of our JPFam. This year’s Spotlight was themed ‘Press Start!’, which took the JPFAM on a nostalgic journey back to the Y2K era, celebrating all things from music to fashion and computer bugs. The talents showcased were truly impressive, ranging from electrifying dance routines to enchanting harp melodies.
Arts@Assembly
From the enchanting melodies of the Chinese Orchestra to the harmonious tunes of the Concert Band, the soul-stirring performances by the Choir, the rhythmic melodies of the Guitar Ensemble, and the playful dance displays by the Malay Cultural Society, each act illuminated the stage with its unique charm and artistry. Not forgetting the mesmerising performance by the JP Dance crew, whose powerful yet serene energy guided us through a captivating journey of movement and expression. And equally noteworthy was the gripping performance by the English Drama Society, which transported us through a story of laughter, tears, and everything in between. Arts@Assembly was a testament to the rich tapestry of talents present within our community, showcasing a diverse range of genres and styles that truly spoke to the vibrancy of our arts scene. This event not only celebrated creativity but also fostered a sense of unity and connection among attendees, highlighting the unique and inclusive spirit of our college. The passion and dedication of our talented performers, along with the wonderful support from the audience, made for a fantastic afternoon together.
Arts Fest
The Arts Fest was envisioned by the Arts & Aesthetics (A&A) Programme Committee with the aim of facilitating interest discovery through experiential learning while creating arts vibrancy within the college. Therefore, the committee conceptualised an updated lineup of activities for the third edition. The A&A CCAs and Art students facilitated arts exposure booths for their peers, promoting greater appreciation for the arts encouraging infinite growth. The student committee explored infinite possibilities, by setting up the Visual and Literary Arts exhibition which showcased poems and visual art by JPJC students. They also assisted the lunchtime performances which enlivened the canteen.
