St. Vincent and the Grenadines National Trust Museum

St. Vincent and the Grenadines National Trust Museum

Donated by Andrew Carnegie as a public library the "Old Library" was restored with the help of the Alliance Francais, which occupies offices on the upper floor. The main floor has the office of the SVG National Trust and an exhibit of some of its archaeological treasures. The collection was founded by the late Dr. Earle Kirby, whose portrait graces the exhibition.




The following are some of the exhibits. The background music (when available) is by Andy Palacio based on Garifuna traditional music.
