Curator Priscilla Hintz Rivera and writer David Knight Jr. took the helm of the established gallery in 2016. Hintz Rivera and Knight both grew up in the Virgin Islands and the Caribbean region, and they love engaging visitors about Caribbean history and the dynamics of the current society on St. John. They hope to make every visitor’s experience of St. John not only enjoyable but rich in ways that deepen understanding and appreciation of this amazing, complex Caribbean island.
Here you will find work done by some of the most innovative contemporary artists working in the Virgin Islands including creative artisanal Caribbean products, jewelry, vintage prints, ceramics, fine art photography, and a wide selection of Caribbean literature.
