Events' Realm

The National Gallery of Jamaica’s _Last Sundays_ programming for August 26th will feature a performance by **Nikeishia Barnes**. On its last day of viewing is the exhibition _Daylight Come… Picturing Dunkley’s Jamaica_.

**ABOUT THE PERFORMER**

Since her debut in _The Digicel Rising Stars_ competition Nikeishia Barnes has steadfastly pursued her musical career and graced the stages of many music festivals in Jamaica and the wider Caribbean with her emotive powerhouse vocals. She works within a wide variety of genres such as jazz, gospel, rhythm and blues, reggae, dancehall and more. She is known for her renditions of songs such as_Everybody Needs Someone To Love_ and _Tonight’s the Night._ Her vocal prowess has been likened to the greats: Aretha Franklin, Mary J. Blige, Lauryn Hill and Marcia Griffiths. Nikeishia has not restricted herself to singing however, she is also a songwriter, rapper, poet, author and emerging producer. Through her music, she expresses aspects of her life such as motherhood, love, sacrifice, struggle and triumph. She has worked with producers such as Donovan Germaine, Anthony B and Ernie Wilks and collaborated with Buju Banton. Her 7 track EP is titled _Wounded in Love_.

**ABOUT THE EXHIBITION**

_Daylight Come: Picturing Dunkley’s Jamaica_ examines the happenings and culture of Jamaica during John Dunkley’s life and acts as an accompaniment to the, now closed, exhibition _John Dunkley: Neither Day nor Night_ exhibition. It explores themes such as immigration, tourism and Jamaica’s journey into the Nationalist era while also taking a look at works by artists of his time, many of whom he would have interacted with.

Doors will open to the public from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. The performance by Nikeishia Barnes will begin at 1:30 p.m. As is customary on _Last Sundays_**, admission and guided tours are free**, but contributions to the Donations Box located in the Coffee Shop are appreciated. These donations help to fund our Last Sunday’s events. The National Gallery’s Gift Shop and Coffee Shop will also be open for business.
