11. The First Anguilla Sculpture Symposium
(Island Harbour, Anguilla; Nov. 9-27)
Looking for an excuse to visit the beautiful beaches of Anguilla? The first event of its kind in the Caribbean, the Anguilla Sculpture Symposium will bring internationally-renowned sculptors to “Rainbow City” this November to create original public art. “This will be a unique opportunity for visitors to learn first-hand about public art and to watch artists in action as they transform raw materials into original public art works,” organizer Walter Bayer promises. Participating artists include Anguilla’s own Courtney Devonish and Cheddie Richardson and visiting members of the Royal British Society of Sculptors. To make it worth your while, four resorts located near the main venue, Island Harbour’s Art Cafe, the Alamanda Beach Club, the Arawak Beach Inn, Serenity, and Shoal Bay Villas, will offer special discounted rates.
