Our Art Exhibition of student artwork from participating secondary and primary schools of the South, E.V.O.L.V.E. has received enthusiastic community support. The selected artworks are displayed in suitable areas for public viewing over a stipulated period. The "on-going" exhibition then culminates with our Grand Student Art Exhibition held in November.
This is an interactive workshop or lecture presentation on careers in the Arts targeted at secondary school students. Sessions feature guest professionals in different fields of the Arts.
Participants are engaged through demonstrations; site visits; slide presentations, etc., as noted professionals define and illustrate their craft, and outline their course of study (formal and/or informal).
"A.B.C.D. Road Trip” is a community intervention project using an Integrated Arts approach that facilitates individual and community development.

As they Vibes and work together with their peers, participants explore various forms of Expression in order to build pride and enhance their environments.
The Junior Creatives Studio is an exciting platform designed to engage youth creatives in exploring a variety of expressive forms in the Arts (Dance, Drama, Music & Visual Arts). At our mobile maker-space, participants are free to create based on guided exercises. At specially hosted sessions community artists/performers are present to share about their journey and process.
“Icons of Our Heritage” is a means of sharing and archiving information on Southern artists who have contributed significantly to the development of the Arts in Trinidad & Tobago.

Art By Creative Design collaborated with artist/teachers Michelle Tappin and Archangel Akash to host this exciting initiative. “Inspire” is a Visual Arts Exhibition showcasing artwork created by Art Teachers of Trinidad & Tobago. This event was conceptualized to celebrate the stellar work of our art teachers whose technical skills and creativity remain for the most part, hidden from their peers and their students.
