BNG Run for the Arts

5K Run and Walk

Join us on Sunday, April 23 for the inaugural BNG 5K Run for the Arts, sponsored by Chubb. The project – a collaboration between the Bermuda National Gallery and photographer Nhuri Bashir – aims to encourage and engage the local community through excercise, art and education. 

Funds raised will be used to support both the North East Hamilton area, in which Nhuri grew up, and the Bermuda National Gallery by financing a vibrant public art programme with the installation of one, or more, large scale murals in the area to highlight and promote these communities. 

In addition to this, proceeds will be used to fund a paid placement of the BNG Internship Programme for a student from the area, providing professional development in all aspects of museum operations and opening the door to a career in the arts; as well as supporting BNG’s education department and programming. 

The BNG Run for the Arts 5K sponsored by Chubb features a competitive run along with a fun run/walk. Open to those who consider themselves serious athletes and those who don’t!

Starting from the Parsons Road Park Basketball courts take in the sights and sounds of North East Hamilton, Happy Valley, Palmetto Road and finish in front of the Community Playground.
