Submissions Now Open for November 2025 Celebrations
The Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority is inviting artists, art galleries, and creative organisations to be a part of the third edition of Antigua and Barbuda Art Week, taking place from November 26 – December 2, 2025.
Being held under the theme ‘Culture in Colour’, Antigua and Barbuda Art Week allows the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority to strategically spotlight the heritage, culture and arts of the destination to visitors seeking out experiential and immersive experiences, while providing artists with a platform to showcase their work and connect with a wider audience.
“Antigua and Barbuda Art Week gives our artists an opportunity to tell their stories, engage new audiences, and be part of an experience that beautifully blends culture, tourism, and creativity,” said Maria Blackman, Marketing Communications Manager at the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority.
“Working with the Ministry of Creative Industries and the Department of Culture, our Heritage and Culture pillar team is thrilled to open this call for new and established artists, who want to inspire others, and share the beauty of our twin-island paradise through their amazing and intriguing work.”

ABOUT ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA ART WEEK
Antigua and Barbuda Art Week is an initiative of the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority, aimed at promoting the destination’s creative economy and expanding cultural tourism through immersive and accessible art and culture experiences.
ABOUT ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA
Antigua (pronounced An-tee’ga) and Barbuda (Bar-byew’da) is located in the heart of the Caribbean Sea. The twin-island paradise offers visitors two uniquely distinct experiences, ideal temperatures year-round, a rich history, vibrant culture, exhilarating excursions, award-winning resorts, mouth-watering cuisine and 365 stunning pink and white-sand beaches – one for every day of the year. The largest of the English-speaking Leeward Islands, Antigua comprises 108-square miles with rich history and spectacular topography that provides a variety of popular sightseeing opportunities. Nelson’s Dockyard, the only remaining example of a Georgian fort a listed UNESCO World Heritage site, is perhaps the most renowned landmark. Antigua’s tourism events calendar includes the Antigua and Barbuda Wellness Month, Run in Paradise, prestigious Antigua Sailing Week, Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta, Antigua and Barbuda Restaurant Week, Antigua and Barbuda Art Week and the annual Antigua Carnival; known as the Caribbean’s Greatest Summer Festival. Barbuda, Antigua’s smaller sister island, is the ultimate celebrity hideaway. The island lies 27 miles north-east of Antigua and is just a 15-minute plane ride away. Barbuda is known for its untouched 11-mile stretch of pink sand beach and as the home of the largest Frigate Bird Sanctuary in the Western Hemisphere.

No age limit I see. Works for me
YES! Antigua and Barbuda Art Week is back! This is such an amazing platform for our local talent to shine.
Love the idea, but will there be opportunities for young or emerging artists who aren’t well connected? I hope so.
This is a good platform but I wish they promoted it earlier and more widely. A lot of artists may miss the deadline.
