xenagurl Posted October 21, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 21, 2014 On our last cruise on the Norwegian Breakaway, DH and I decided to look at Bermuda with a different lens and used an afternoon to focus on Art. We wound up at two interesting spots, hopefully if you visit you'll find them as interesting as we did. Full write up here with all photos. The other white house… On our Breakaway cruise last month we wanted to expand our view of Bermuda so we decided to spend part of an afternoon delving into art found on the island. If you take the ferry or bus over to a Hamilton you’ll find yourself only a block or two away from a very large white building located on 17 Church St., Hamilton, Bermuda inside of it you will find the National Gallery of Bermuda. (Free however donations are accepted) If you are arriving at the front of the building before even taking a step into he cool and breezy entrance area you look to you right and there is a bronze sculpture showing a mother reading to her two children, entitled ‘the Joy of Reading’.

xenagurl Posted October 21, 2014 Author #2 Share Posted October 21, 2014 How to go on safari in Hamilton… Next, we head to the Crisson and Hind African art gallery located on Front street in Hamilton. If you arrive on the ferry from dockyards, it will be to your right about 200 yards away. The owner is a man named Dusty who if you have a chance to speak to you should. He’s interesting and will tell you about the history of the gallery, information on the artists, and the area of Zimbabwe that they come from. One fascinating story involves the below 5 sculptures. They’re known as the big 5 in African game hunting... Other sculptures. All photos copyright TravelXena.com © 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
