TEPA hosts a Travelling Art Show

The second showing of the Traveling Art Show was held at the Royalton Saint Lucia Resort and Spa on June 21. The Art Show served as an Art & Craft Gallery and Pop-Up Shop for local artists and artisans whose work is recognized as unique, marketable abroad and truly Saint Lucian. TEPA’s vision is that the Art Show will move to various hotels across the island to showcase authentic local products and offer them for sale.
