It’s been a busy couple of weeks at the UWI Museum. Poster artist ‘Freestylee’, whose exhibition of global reggae posters continues until the end of the first week in June, came by for a visit.
Staff members from the Philip Sherlock Centre for the Creative Arts (PSCCA) and the Tropical Metabolism Research Institute (TMRI) – both on the University of the West Indies Mona campus in Kingston – included us in field trips. Some members of the UWI Management Audit team, in Jamaica for a meeting, came in for a look. Other museum friends dropped by.

Several Barbadian Council members were especially interested in some of the audio-visual material that forms part of an exhibition on Cave Hill @ 50. Cave Hill is, of course, the UWI Campus in Barbados. More on that exhibition soon.
