Arts
Anguilla is home to a veritable colony of artists who have come from many parts of the world to join Anguilla’s noted local artists in the pursuit of their creative muse. Their diverse art forms include pottery, sculpture, handcrafts, paintings, photography and woodcraft.
The creations of local artists are complemented by a growing collection of tribal artifacts, textiles, antiques, carvings and furniture from many exotic destinations, and can be found in the art galleries and studios across our island.

Lynne Bernbaum Art Studio
Lynne Bernbaum explores the geometry within nature and the nature of geometry within fine art by responding to a variety of external stimuli found in her surroundings on our island — her home and inspiration for the past decade. By overlaying the elements of pattern, subject, color palette and composition with a refinement of style and a ‘whimsical seriousness,’ she achieves startling and graphically compelling results in her paintings. Lynne’s studio is located in George Hill Landing.
Open Monday - Saturday.
