St. Thomas has long been on the map for its arts scene. Camille Pissarro, the famous Impressionist, was born on St. Thomas in 1830, and a gallery that bears his name is located in his family's former residence on Main Street. Today, the art scene on the island boasts works by several local artists, and these works are available at numerous galleries throughout the island. Paintings in oil, fabric, watercolor, monotype, acrylic, pastel, encaustic and multimedia are for sale, as are art pieces such as collages, prints, photographs, ceramics, woodcraft, sculpture and metal works. Most local art has a tropical feel, but occasionally artists depart from the norm and tie in a more international theme. Galleries such as Gallery St. Thomas, located on Main Street in Charlotte Amalie, and Mango Tango, on Raphune Hill at Al Cohen's Mall, stage monthly showings that place many artists center stage for the public to view.
Tillett Gardens is an artist's oasis on St. Thomas. You can watch artists create raku pottery, candles and silkscreen prints. Arts Alive Arts, Crafts & Music Festivals take place in May and November each year, drawing over 30 local artists for these two-day sales extravaganzas. The performing arts are alive in the Gardens too. The Pistarckle Theater is based here, with productions staged year-round. The Arts Alive Concert Series features classical and contemporary musicians and runs annually from October through April. Please see the Events section for more information about the arts, venues and performance dates.
