Description

The National Gallery of the Cayman Islands (NGCI) and Walkers are pleased to present a vibrant exhibition of student artwork created during six Walkers’ Art Clubs throughout the school year. The NGCI afterschool art clubs, which are kindly sponsored by Walkers, benefit approximately 100 students, ranging from pre-schoolers, foundation, primary school students, secondary school students, students from Cayman Brac, and teens who are studying for their final exams. As the school year ends, students showcase highlights from the many projects they have been working on.

The wide scope of artwork in this year’s Walkers Art Club exhibition provides insight into not only the inner thoughts of one hundred of Cayman’s young artists, but also into the artistic future of our country.

At its core, the Walkers Art Club programme aims to expose young artists to a variety of practices and deepen their understanding of the many fields that they can possibly undertake going forward in their artistic journeys. This is clearly reflected on both a theoretical and practical level in the catalogue of work created by these students.

We hope that viewing their artwork assembled together provides a warm and promising vision for the future of art in the Cayman Islands.

Thank you to Walkers for making this programme possible.

Admission to the exhibition is free of charge. For more information about the Walkers’ Art Clubs please contact the National Gallery at (345) 945 8111 or email education@nationalgalllery.org.ky
