May 6, 2023
About the event
In celebration of World Down Syndrome Day and World Autism Awareness Day, MINDSG will be kicking off the second edition of The Colour Socks Parade (CSP) this year! The event aims to showcase the gifts and abilities of Persons with Intellectual Disability (PWIDs), raise awareness of PWIDs in the community and foster meaningful engagements between PWIDS, their families and the wider community.
OUR APPROACH
Launch Mechanism
We curated a captivating launch activity to kick-start the event. Whether it was a ribbon-cutting ceremony, a symbolic gesture, or an engaging performance, we carefully planned and executed the launch to create an impactful and memorable experience for all attendees.
Build-up & Teardown
Our skilled team managed the entire build-up and teardown process efficiently and professionally. We coordinated with vendors, supervised the setup of stages, exhibition areas, seating arrangements, audio-visual equipment, and other event infrastructure. After the event, we ensured a swift and systematic teardown, reinstating the venue to its original condition.
Stage Programme Management
Our team diligently managed the stage programme, ensuring smooth transitions between sessions, performances, and activities. We maintained adherence to the event timeline, coordinated with speakers and performers, and created a dynamic and engaging programme for all attendees.
Audio Visual Management
We employed professional audio-visual technicians who managed the technical aspects of the event. They ensured optimal sound quality, visual effects, and seamless integration of multimedia elements, enhancing the overall experience for both speakers and attendees.
Booth Layout & Build-up
We meticulously designed the layout of booths to maximize attendee flow and engagement. Our team managed the build-up process, ensuring the timely and efficient setup of each booth, taking into consideration factors such as aesthetics, functionality, and accessibility.
THE RESULTS
Fundraising for a Cause: All proceeds from donations and event activities support the services provided by MINDS, enhancing the lives of over 7,500 PWIDs across Singapore through educational programs, employment support, and more.
The Colour Socks Parade offers not just an opportunity to celebrate inclusion but also a chance for everyone to actively contribute to a more accepting society. By bringing together diverse members of the community in an engaging and meaningful way, the parade stands as a testament to the power of creativity and compassion.
