FUZE Caribbean Art Fair Returns to The Bahamas
The Caribbean's vibrant art scene will be in full display at the FUZE Caribbean Art Fair, set to occur alongside the highly anticipated Culinary Arts Festival at Baha Mar from October 22-26, 2025. This event marks the third edition of FUZE, which has quickly become a cornerstone of Caribbean culture and creativity.
A Rich Celebration of Art
The 2025 edition of FUZE is made possible through the generous sponsorship of Scotiabank, alongside other sponsors including the Nassau Paradise Island Promotion Board, Wildflowers, Sherwin-Williams, and more. With admiration for the arts, FUZE aims to connect emerging and established artists with audiences from around the globe, fostering an environment rich in creativity and cultural dialogue.
This year’s fair will host an impressive lineup of over 120 artists from 21 Caribbean nations, showcasing an array of artistic disciplines that celebrate the cultural heritage and contemporary narratives of the region. Special focus will be on innovative creators who challenge traditional norms, providing art collectors and enthusiasts with a chance to discover fresh talents and engage directly with artists.
An Iconic Performance
A highlight of the festival will be the performance by Bahamian rock legend and four-time Grammy Award winner, Lenny Kravitz. His collaboration with the Culinary Arts Festival guarantees an unforgettable experience for attendees, featuring exclusive tastings and master classes led by renowned chefs such as Marcus Samuelsson, Daniel Boulud, and many others. This fusion of culinary and artistic expression promises to be a unique celebration of The Bahamas’ rich flavors and cultural vibrancy.
