EDWARD GARTLAND YOUTH CENTRE FUNDRAISER ‘AN EXCLUSIVE EVENING OF ART’ A HUGE SUCCESS
EDWARD GARTLAND YOUTH CENTRE FUNDRAISER ‘AN EXCLUSIVE EVENING OF ART’ AT AMANYARA RAISES CLOSE TO $40,000
On January 30th 2016, the Edward Gartland Youth Centre in collaboration with Amanyara Resorts, Gilley’s Enterprises, Turks and Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty (TCSIR) and Finishing Touch, hosted ‘An Exclusive Evening of Art’. The event raised almost forty thousand dollars with another thirty-five thousand dollars pledged towards the music studio/bandstand project.
The second annual event was hosted at a private villa at the exclusive Amanyara Resort and featured a collection of art work from local and international artists. There were limited tickets available and the event was sold out! The evening included complimentary welcome champagne, canapes, transportation to and from the resort, a live and silent auction and prize giveaways.
Featured international graphic artist and painter, Philippe Dodard, was not able to be present at the event but did send his work to be exhibited in the show which was admired by all who attended.
Upon entry to the event, guests were given bidding paddles for the live auction and a program outlining all of the artist’s biographies so that they could be identified at the event. Over 20 different artists had their work exhibited in the show which included a wide range of different mediums of art from acrylic and oil paintings, photography, wood work, ceramics and digital art. The silent auction was very popular and the live auction proved to be a major success with auctioneer Dudley Berry keeping the bidders entertained and involved as he used his skills to entice the crowd to purchase art and amazing trips including a Napa Valley exclusive wine tour and a stay at the Amanyara Resorts.
A short video was shown during the evening spearheaded by Joe Zahm, TCSIR, dedicated to showcasing the centre’s mission under the theme, “It Ain’t What You Got, It’s What You Do With What You Got”.
Dexter Landy wooed the crowd with his soulful saxophone and steel pans, making the evening truly a night to remember.
There was an individual villa pod dedicated to art from the youth centre members, the Provo Children’s Home and the British West Indies Collegiate, which proved to be a very successful expansion on the previous year’s event.
Director, Roxann Wake-Forbes, commented “I am truly overwhelmed by the support that we received for this event and am delighted to see the community come out and support us as we strive to better the lives of young people on the islands as well as being able to continue to provide them with so many valuable opportunities”.
The Edward Gartland Youth Centre would like to thank all of their sponsors, supporters and the community who came out to support the event and help raise funds for the centre and the building of a music studio/bandstand on the grounds.

The Shore Club On Long Bay Beachfront – A Progress Tour
On Monday, November 9th our sales agents at Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty were pleased to be given a progress tour of The Shore Club by Stan Hartling, CEO of Hartling Group and developer of The Shore Club, The Palms Resort and The Sands. The tour provided the sales agents a fantastic glimpse of the progress and the superior quality within the development. From the grand mahogany doors on the entrance of each suite, and the hand stamped tiles in the entryways to the elegant light fixtures, the condominium suites are beautifully detailed throughout.
Complementing the mahogany doors as well as the interior doorways are custom architectural hardware by leading designer, Ashley Norton, a provider of custom hardware to luxury hotels such as Ritz Carlton as well as some of the most distinctive homes in the US and beyond. The hand-stamped tiles in the entryways and in the bathrooms that create an illusion of area carpets were crafted in and imported from the Dominican Republic.
We were also captivated by the luxurious spa-like bathrooms within each suite that include custom vanities that show as furniture pieces, elegant glass tile work throughout and sanctuary marble tops. The center island kitchens in the suites are appointed with mahogany custom cabinets and granite countertops. Both the granite and marble were personally hand selected in Vietnam by Stan Hartling to ensure consistency throughout the selection.
The condominium suites are also enhanced with Waterworks fixtures. Waterworks brings impeccable style and artisanal quality craftsmanship to bathrooms and kitchens around the world. Highly regarded as a premier design resource, Waterworks fixtures are de rigeur in many bespoke residences.
The selection of light fixtures, Chandeliers and wall sconces now installed in The Shore Club suites are by Currey & Company, a manufacturer of distinctive products with a vision to create and fulfill the desire for distinctive home furnishings.
Our tour also included a full viewing of the resort amenities currently under construction that will provide owners and guests a tropical oasis with plenty of areas for private reflection or family gatherings.
We look forward to the completion of The Shore Club on Long Bay Beachfront. This elegant development provides an exceptional quality of life environment, in stunning natural surroundings.
