The Liguanea Lodge 1479 S.C. Returns

-

After two long years of virtual events, the Liguanea Lodge 1479 S.C. returns to a face-to-face Art auction on the grounds of Fort Charles, Stony Hill on June 3, 2023 at 7pm.

For this, their 30th anniversar­y, they will celebrate with continued elegance, style and sophistica­tion, plus the addition of something extra special. In a similar spirit to the Rome and Berlin Art Prizes awarded internatio­nally, they we will be launching the inaugural Liguanea Lodge Douglas Mcdonald Art Prize. The aim of this prize is to use net proceeds to award 2 million dollars (JMD) to an exceptiona­l Jamaican artist, selected by a juried panel. This art prize is named in honour of Dr. Douglas Mcdonald, an esteemed member of the Liguanea Lodge and the conceptual­izer of the annual Art auction
