Tillett Gardens was once an outdated Danish farm. Even though it has been largely changed so that you can incorporate present uses; it really is 1 of the few outdated farm buildings on St. Thomas that is open to the public. It was transformed into a center for nearby artists and performers by Jim Tillett, an English silkscreen artist, who arrived on St. Thomas in 1959. Tillett described the garden as “a peaceful sanctuary of creativity and wonderment.” Within the shops at Tillett Gardens, you will discover silkscreen prints, paintings, enamel jewelry, candles and numerous other locally hand-crafted items.
There is really a lovely restaurant located in the garden. It is a excellent spot to take pleasure in a cool drink or have some thing to eat even though shopping for neighborhood art. Arts and crafts shows and classical music concerts are hosted at Tillett Gardens throughout the year.
