Its internationally renowned collection comprises more than 5,000 works of art from various cultures, creating a unique dialogue between the Old and New Worlds.
Coming to Ponce, the last thing I expected to find was such a well curated museum. And much to my surprise, it had one of my favorite pieces - Flaming June. The museum's history is interesting and it shows how personal taste can create an amazing collection. Small space, easily accessible art. Definitely worth the time and visit. Small gift shop that doesn't take advantage of the collection. Absurdly low entry fee - which I appreciated because it allows more people to access the collection. However, I strongly encourage those who can to donate so the museum can continue to benefit future generations.

Our amazing Junkanoo museum represents a taste of our festive and colourful Bahamian culture. There are many awesome Junkanoo costumes and photos which tell the story of past Junkanoo parades. Our vibrant exhibits capture the art of Junkanoo costuming and music. Enjoy our gorgeous mosaic floors and ceilings. It is absolutely breath taking! Stop and shop at our gift store where you will find beautiful souvenirs crafted by local artisans. Our fabulous Junkanoo and Carnival supply store has everything you are looking for to create those colourful and exquisite costumes.
We really enjoyed the Junkanoo Wolrd Museum. We loved hearing about the Junkanoo festival and heritage. Seeing all of the elaborate costumes they wear in the parades was amazing. Quintin and our tour guide gave us a look at how they are made, WHAT SKILL. The pride is apparent in this museum, it is not to be missed.

This is a historical space and building dating back to the mid 1800's that has been restored to a serene, tropical and artistic space by the host artist Antonius Roberts. This space is an art gallery, a bar and can be transformed for many other occasions.

Small but wonderful art museum in historic Bayamon center close to Tren Urbano. Beware that google maps and waze take you to the wrong place. Use corner of calle Degetau and calle Maceo. Was showing a retrospective of a fascinating artist/printmaker.

Much more than a vast collection of Bahamian contemporary art, The Current Gallery and Art Center is a hub for compelling Bahamian artistic experiences. A center for recognizing and supporting a strong creative community through captivating exhibitions, workshops classes and lectures, artist residences and partnerships with local collectors.

Bermuda National Gallery was established in 1992 and has an historical and contemporary collection to reflect the history and diversity of the Island's evolving demographic. Artworks in BNG's permanent collection include Bermudian, European (for example Gainsborough, Reynolds, Wilson), traditional West African, American Impressionism and photography, as well as sculptures provided for the Queen Elizabeth Park (formerly Par-la-Ville Park) in Hamilton. Every other year, BNG hosts the Bermuda Biennial of Contemporary Art - the current 2018 Biennial is themed "What We Share". Also currently on view: "Shepard Fairey: rebel with a cause", "Land & Sea: Fragile Treasures" and Peter Woolcock's "A New Bestiary for Children". Admissions is $5; FREE admission for members (including NARM), seniors 65+ and students.
Stopped by to see the Shepard Fairey exhibit [on through April] and enjoyed the balance of the galleries immensely. There was an exhibit of women artists from the island which was refreshing, as well as an interestingly organized assemblage of works by island artists as well as others in an unusual juxtaposition of periods and medium. Make it a point to spend a leisurely hour at the galleries.
