Launch your imagination
BVI Arts is a joy! Professional, inclusive and terribly fun; our family have had the pleasure of working with Claudia Knight for the last couple years. From movies to live theatre, Claudia's standard of production is high. Her encouragement is always positive, her energy levels infectious and she beautifully fills a need for high quality performing arts in the BVI. Thank you Claudia for all that you do!

My 6 year old daughter loves the Killi Killi holiday camps. They helped her make new friends and developed her confidence to try different games and activities. She has attended Christmas and Easter camps since she was 5 years old. CK is an awesome motivator and inspirer of young people and the camps are so welcoming and friendly.

It's absolutely amazing to have something in the BVI that has provided me with a platform to get back into performing arts. Having performed in the last two pantomimes, I have been able to find my creative outlet again, meet new people who have become fantastic friends and generally just have a complete blast. Thanks Claudia!!!

Our Story
BVI Arts began as Killi Killi Arts Company LTD in 2013 and since then, except for during the hurricane and covid periods, we have been working tirelessly to bring the performing arts to the BVI.
Our mission is to create opportunities for our island community to explore their creativity and share in the joys of creative expression, whether that is through taking a class with us, arranging a workshop or event, or participating in a theatre production.
We aim to become a hub for creative talent within the region, nurturing local performance skills, with an eye on a wider Caribbean audience.
According to researchers, creativity is the most essential skill to possess in the emerging social and economic world of the 21st Century, so, join us and launch your imagination.
Productions
We currently produce three pieces of theatre a year, including our popular, annual Christmas pantomime, as well as one film project.
We provide opportunities to participate in a variety of roles, from technical to performance based, in family and adult productions.
Auditions are held separately for each production, so if you would like to be kept informed about audition dates please sign up to our mailing list.
If you would like to commission a piece of theatre or you are interested in bringing one of our productions to your island get in touch.

We hold a variety of classes and workshops from our venue in Johnsons Ghut and we bring these classes directly into schools across the island.
We currently offer theatre, art, dance, singing, including certified LAMDA training in these subjects; PE, production projects, creative fusion workshops, with more to come.
Our classes are fun-packed, bursting with creativity and our teachers are experienced with all age groups.

Holiday Camps
We have the most creative holiday camps on island, jam-packed with games and fun activities that are sure to entertain, inspire and educate.
For part of the summer we run production projects where students rehearse, make props, arrange costumes and put together a mini production by the end of the camp. These camps run for 2-3 weeks. For the remainder of the summer we offer a fun-filled fusion of creative arts skills
Our shorter camps are a mixture of drama, dance, singing, art and games all of which are geared towards boosting confidence, creative problem solving and team work.
Check the calendar for dates of the next camps and look on the Events page to see the flyer for what camp's coming up next.
Venue Hire & Parties
Our venue is available to hire for your party or event.
We have an open, covered area downstairs with a sink, an upstairs classroom, two toilets and a large, flat garden space, ideal for energetic games.
