The story

Antigua and Barbuda Art Week in Antigua and Barbuda galleries/studios/public spaces

Antigua and Barbuda Art Week spans more than fifty visual artists across a distributed network of galleries and studios island-wide, including a concentration at Historic Redcliffe Quay and further venues from St John's to Barbuda's Artsy Yaadie, with Open Studios letting visitors meet artists directly and a guided Art and Culture Bus Tour covering five stops and eight venues, typically held across roughly a week in late November into early December.

Antigua and Barbuda Art Week transforms the twin islands into a distributed visual art trail, spanning more than fifty of the country's most talented visual artists alongside international guests across a network of galleries and studios rather than a single exhibition venue.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Few art weeks anywhere spread as genuinely island-wide as Antigua and Barbuda's, running from concentrated Redcliffe Quay galleries to individual studios in Fitches Creek, Buckleys and All Saints on Antigua through to Artsy Yaadie on Barbuda itself

02

The mystery stays covered

Its Open Studios format, letting visitors meet more than fifty participating artists directly at their working spaces rather than only in finished gallery displays, also gives the week a genuinely participatory character

03

The city starts moving

The guided Art and Culture Bus Tour further distinguishes it by solving the practical challenge of navigating such a geographically scattered programme in a single organised day
