Art exhibit uplifts young men

Last fall, the Public Treasury Art Programme (PTAP) celebrated the launch of its new art initiative, which transformed the foyers of the Public Treasury building into gallery space to showcase original art by professional and emerging artists.

After a well received five-month inaugural exhibition 'Bahama Mama', an amalgamation of visual and literary works from 25 talented female artists and writers, the PTAP is returning this May with a new exhibition, 'Nurturing Brotherhood'.

PTAP aims to build upon its reputation for empowering aspiring artists by allowing art students to take center stage of the creative arts industry.

'Nurturing Brotherhood' will not only exhibit work from some of the most talented men in the Bahamas, but also mark the beginning of a promising mentorship program.

In an effort to unify the young male Bahamian community through the arts, PTAP has paired with professional artists and designers and high school students to produce a body of work that will exhibit alongside each other.

PTAP invites the general public to attend the opening of the exhibition on Friday, May 18.
