On “NAGB’s Blank Canvas,” your guest host Katrina Cartwright, NAGB Education and Outreach Manager is joined in the studio by colleague Education Officer Blake Fox who speaks to the launch of the museum’s new “Get Set For Fall” programme, the current Mixed Media Art Summer Camp exhibition and his participation in the upcoming MAC Conference 2021.
On my way to work, I noticed that a familiar town had been demolished. Boards and other forms of structure that once housed a community lay broken on the ground.
The National Art Gallery of The Bahamas (NAGB) is hosting its upcoming annual All-Star Amateur Artists (AAA) presented by the NAGB Education Department.The AAA was designed to bring together emerging and amateur artists to display their work in a professional museum setting. The Gallery hopes this opportunity will encourage these artists to develop their skill and study within the arts.
Dear Bloggers, First & Foremost, I am Gem Roberts, an aspiring artist and aspiring computer information systems specialist. This past week, being my first week as an intern at NAGB has been informative and event filled, including this past Wednesday being the fortieth year of independence for my Bahamas.
Starting our internship, another intern, Ashante, and I were given a brief tour of the grounds in order to familiarize ourselves with the building and its history. We also read catalogues concerning exhibitions that were on display at the time to get an idea of what has been happening inside the gallery, as well as gain some knowledge about famous Bahamian artists.
