The National Gallery of Jamaica’s Last Sundays programme for January 29, 2017, will be the last chance to see the Spiritual Yards Home Ground of Jamaica’s Intuitives Selections from the Wayne and Myrene Cox exhibition, which closes on that day. There will also be a musical performance by emerging artiste Javada.
Consisting entirely of works from the collection of Wayne and Myrene Cox Collection, the Spiritual Yards exhibition explores the work of Intuitive artists who produced sacred images and objects which are rooted in Revival religions, Rastafari or their individual spiritual beliefs, and are representative of the “spiritual yard” tradition in Jamaica, which is an important yet insufficiently documented part of Jamaica’s popular cultural heritage. Spiritual Yards features the work of ten such artists, namely Errol Lloyd “Powah” Atherton, Vincent Atherton, Everald Brown, Pastor Winston Brown, Leonard Daley, Reginald English, Elijah (Geneva Mais Jarrett), William “Woody” Joseph, Errol McKenzie, and Sylvester Stephens, along with rare photographs and video material on their life, work and spiritual yards from the Wayne and Myrene Cox archives. The exhibition has achieved significant visitor acclaim and is a must-see before it closes.

REFLECTIONS: Last Words of the Graduating Class
The Citizen asked students to share their ‘last words’ in mini 140-character messages, adopting a practice from the social-networking service, Twitter. Why 140 characters? Well, Twitter founders chose 140 characters to stay within the limit of worldwide text-messaging services (at 160 characters). They didn’t want messages to be broken up in multiple parts when sent over phones. The 140 characters enabled them to stay within the limit with enough characters for a username and colon. Understanding that brevity and clarity is central to messaging in our modern day world, we adopted the 140-character limit for last words from the graduating class.
As you will see, some HKSers refuse to stay within a mold and posted longer messages. We allowed a few of them because we were resigned to the fact that this is their special day (a graduation day). (A friendly reminder as you re-enter the working world: Not all bureaucracies are as flexible.)
