Keswick is excited to experience and support the Youth Art Month opening event at the Virgin Island’s Children’s Museum (VICM) on March 27, 2026. This is a great opportunity to experience the creativity of young Virgin Islanders through their art exhibits. We are looking forward to a beautiful event and seeing the passionate young artists show off their creations.
The Virgin Island’s Children’s Museum is part of a multicultural and multinational community that invites visitors from across the Caribbean and throughout the world. The museum serves families, educators, children of the Virgin Islands and visitors to the Territory. All age groups benefit from and enjoy visiting the museum.
