ABOUT ACF
The SMU Arts & Cultural Fraternity (ACF) is one of the four CCA Constituent Bodies that are a part of SMUSA.
SMU ACF works together with the SMU’s 21 arts and cultural clubs, supporting their artistes in the promotion and pursuit of their artistic endeavours. It also provides platforms and opportunities for clubs to expand their reach to the SMU family and the community at large.

ACF ARTS CAMP: SOIRÉE
Arts Camp is ACF's annual orientation camp to introduce incoming freshmen to the wide range of arts and cultural clubs in SMU. Through exciting workshops facilitated by the arts and cultural clubs, freshmen will gain insights into SMU’s vibrant arts and cultural scene.
In a realm bustling with creativity and joy stands the magnificent Central Tower – a beacon of light, music, and celebration. This tower was not merely a structure; it was the heart of the realm, its energy infusing every festivity and uniting all in harmony.
Then one fateful day, a mysterious tremor shook the land. In the ensuing chaos, the radiant energy cores – shimmering gems that powered the tower – were dislodged and scattered across distant lands. The once-vibrant tower dimmed, and celebrations ceased. The realm fell silent, awaiting the return of its spark of life.
Now, the realm looks to the brave and curious Seekers, our freshmen, to embark on a grand adventure. Divided into three clans – Embris (em-briss), Veyra (vay-rah), and Aurion (aw-ree-on) – they must face unique challenges, forge unbreakable bonds, and recover the lost energy cores to power the Central Tower once again.
Only through unity, courage, and creativity can they restore the tower's brilliance and reignite the realm's eternal celebration – the SOIRÉE (swah-ray).
