Mural Proposals
Application deadline: Sunday, March 26.
Sunday, April 23 marks the inaugural BNG 5k Run for the Arts, sponsored by Chubb. The project — a collaboration between Bermuda National Gallery and photographer Nhuri Bashir — aims to encourage and engage the local community through exercise, art and education.
