The ÀNI Art Academies Anguilla hosted its annual Open House on February 10, 2025, at the exclusive ÀNI Private Resort Anguilla in Little Bay. The event welcomed nearly 100 guests, including the 5th form Art class of the Albena Lake Hodge Comprehensive School, alongside art enthusiasts and members of the public. Attendees explored exceptional works created by ÀNI students, engaged with artists, and gained more profound insight into the academy’s rigorous, world-class curriculum.
Attendees also had the opportunity to try one of the academies’ more rigorous exercises, the pressure scales.
This Open House provided a unique opportunity for the community to experience the transformative power of ÀNI’s mentorship, which nurtures emerging local talent. Visitors were inspired by the academy’s dedication to artistic excellence and the impact of its training.
Special appreciation goes to Taffari Crawford, Dean and Instructor, whose guidance shapes the students’ artistic journeys, graduate apprentice Michael Hernandez Mena for the amazing images, and Jazmín Rojas, Acting General Manager of ÀNI Private Resort, for her and her team’s support in making this inspiring and educational event a success.
