Grenada Contemporary 2025 opens 30 October

The Grenada Contemporary Exhibition, a cornerstone of Caribbean visual art, is set to return for its 8th edition on Thursday, 30 October 2025, at Art House 473. The event, running from 6 pm to 7:30 pm, offers free admission to the public, inviting all to immerse themselves in one of the region’s most vibrant artistic platforms. Since its inception under the Susan Mains Gallery, the exhibition has grown into a critical and creative benchmark, showcasing the works of 91 artists across various disciplines, including painting, sculpture, photography, and mixed media. This year’s theme, ‘Dreevay,’ a Caribbean term symbolizing wandering and movement, explores the idea that art thrives in motion, capturing the spontaneous and ever-evolving essence of Caribbean life. Curated by Asher Mains, the exhibition features over 25 artists whose works delve into themes of identity, ecology, migration, and belonging. The event will also include an artist talk on Saturday, 1 November, featuring Russell Watson from Barbados, who will share insights into his photography and video art practice. Grenada Contemporary continues to assert the Caribbean as a hub of artistic innovation, offering a space where visual, political, and poetic expressions converge. Parking is available at Lavo Lanes, with a shuttle service provided. For media inquiries, contact [email protected].
