St. Vincent Teaching Art to Children

Donors we truly do thank you for your support! You have stuck with us through these many years giving us both moral and financial support.

We are excited to present our annual visual arts program. We are proud of the fact we have been offering this program for over twenty years. The 2022  "Growing Young SVG Artists" program, is slated to sart Monday, August 8. and will end Friday, August 19 . At the moment we are busy creating exciting and fun art activities.This year's title "It's Up To You" will focus on Climate Change and learning about the first national hero of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, the Right Excellent Joseph Chatoyer Paramount Chief of the Caribs. Art activities include sculpture, book making, drawing and painting. The children will also have the opportunity to learn poems which focus on planet earth.  A  field trip to a private garden in the neighbourhood is also planned.

  In the last month we have started the process of looking for a  new home for the Centre. Our current space has some serious structual damage, which will cost a small fortune to repair. Our landlady is disinclined to do repairs to the building. We have also come to the conclusion that our current location is too residential. So we have started the search for a suitable space. Ideally we would like a space where there is more foot traffic. Right now we are focused on getting more people to visit the Art Centre and Gallery.  

It will be interesting to see what sort of space we are able to get. In my next report hopefully I will be able to give you an update. In the meantime please keep on supporting our mission.
