I’m passionate about Antigua and Barbuda Art Week because it is one of the events in Antigua and Barbuda that provides a platform for our artists, musicians, artisans, and other cultural practitioners to take centre stage.

It’s also an invitation for visitors to plan their stay around a week filled with creativity and authentic experiences. This year’s Art Week is extremely special, as the ABTA team’s vision of Art Week being a showcase of the arts, driven by the community is truly taking off and expanding.

While visual arts remain at the heart of the event, there’s so much more to uncover for spectators🥳, with lots to see, hear, and experience throughout the week. Art Week is a journey of creativity, and we invite everyone to participate, meet the artists, join a workshop, a paint session, view the fashion,, purchase an artisan product or a piece of art or two for your home, or your business place and be immersed in the colour and culture of Antigua and Barbuda. We look forward to seeing you and hope you leave inspired by your experience.

Antigua and Barbuda Art Week takes place November 26 - December 2, 2025.

Antigua and Barbuda Art Week 2024, was such an emotional experience for me - seeing the event come to life, in all its colour, glory, and witnessing all the artists in their element, truly brought tears to my eyes. It was a busy period, that seemed to go by all so quickly, so I am happy for pieces like this that provide a constant reminder of the amazing artists in Antigua and Barbuda.

Please do explore just some of the artists in this feature in The Citizen publication.
