The duo of National Gallery buildings has been operational for just over a month. However, with the larger facility comes additional overhead responsibility. One of the areas the National Gallery of the Cayman Islands (NGCI) has anticipated will help bring in revenue, is the new Gallery Gift Shop where visitors can purchase items exclusive to the shop like prints of select images in the NGCI Permanent Collection, jewellery by Xie Xie Designs, t-shirts, art supplies and now—thanks to PwC—coffee mugs.

Having partnered with the NGCI in donating to its Capital Building Project and resulting in the naming of the “PwC Pavilion”, the private sector company continues to show its support to the arts entity. By donating the mugs, PwC has provided the shop with another unique item up for sale. The beautifully glazed two-tone ceramic mugs adorned with the National Gallery logo, comes in three colors; red, orange and yellow.

“PwC is proud to be a part of the National Gallery’s new home and we encourage the rest of the community to take advantage of this new space and all that it has to offer – even join us for coffee at the PwC Pavilion!  We hope our donation of Gallery branded coffee mugs will allow patrons to have a nice keepsake, while supporting the National Gallery at the same time” says Angilynn Baraud, PwC’s Assurance and Business Development Manager.

“On purchasing a coffee mug for family members or friends, visitors will not only give a unique gift but also offer economic support to the National Gallery” says Mona Watler, Communications and Marketing Manager of the National Gallery. “We wish to thank PwC for their donation which will help in generating much needed income.”

The Gallery Gift Shop is located on the ground floor of the FJ Harquail Hall and is open weekdays from 10:00am to 5:00pm and 10:00am to 3:00pm on Saturdays. Call 945-8111 or log on to www.nationalgallery.org.ky for information on the NGCI and its programmes.
