Community Events & News
On Saturday, November 3rd 2018, the National Museum on Grand Turk hosted a Museum Day Community event. The purpose of the day was to reintroduce residents of the community to Turks and Caicos National Museum and to introduce new programming by the museum. The new programming includes the “People of the Islands Oral History Project”, a Community Mosaic on the boundary wall for the museum and garden and a monthly children’s club program to begin in January 2019.
The mosaic project was especially well received as both kids and adults really embraced the creation of the mosaic. We look forward to the continued involvement of the Grand Turk community as the mosaic is continued over the next year.
The tremendous support and participation shows that the Museum continues to receive the support of the community of Grand Turk.
The day could not have happened without the kind support of our sponsors: Carnival, Morris Cottingham, Blue Water Divers, Jack Shack, Oasis Divers, Turks Head Inne, Salt Raker, Digicel, Exclusive Escapes, White Sands Charters n’ Tours, Osprey, and Island Creations. A special thank you also goes to all of our volunteers who helped to make the day a success.

May 18, 2018 we celebrated the ways of days past with our Back in the Day Event at our Grace Bay Village location on Providenciales
The Turks and Caicos National Museum would like to thank the community celebrating our second annual International Museum Day Event at the museum in Grace Bay, Providenciales with us. The museum’s Caicos Heritage Homestead Exhibit came alive under the ‘Back in the Day’ theme which was well executed with dramatic performances, food, music, dance and traditional craft. The tremendous participation and support from the community is an indication of the interest in knowing, practicing and passing on our cultural heritage to the next generation. A special thanks to our sponsors and volunteers for making this day a success.

HJ Robinson school team, second place winners of the 2017 Turks and Caicos National Museum’s History and Cultural Heritage quiz, won a historical tour as part of their prize. They took that prize trip to Providenciales on Friday June 23, 2017. The team Noel Benjamin, Michael Archibold and Amanda Ingham were accompanied by parent Mrs. Mandy Archibold. They were hosted by museum volunteer Ms. Emily Malcolm and museum representative Mrs. Candianne Williams.
The group toured the Caicos Heritage Homestead exhibit, Cheshire Hall Plantation and Little Water Cay the Iguana Island. They also explored the maritime heritage with traditional boat builder Pastor Gold Williams, and got a tour of the traditional Caicos sloop that he is building.
We would like to say a special thank you to sponsors TCI Reef Fund and InterCaribbean Airways. Thank you also to Caribbean Cruisin, and Turks and Caicos National Trust, Pastor Gold Williams and Ms. Emily Malcom for contributing to making this day a wonderfully memorable one.
