The biography of Antiguan artist Gilly Gobinet describes her journey from birth to the present day.
She grew up in England, where she was born. Although excelling in art at an early age, her mother advised her to get a “proper” career,  as the ability to paint would never leave her. Thus Gilly gained a BSc Hons. Degree in Biological Sciences at the University of Sussex, after which she worked on the editorial side in a veterinary laboratory,  as a ghost writer for a professor of epidemiology & social medicine in a London teaching hospital, and finally as an international civil servant in Strasbourg, France, in the fields of nature conservation and public health.
A happy coincidence found her on vacation in Antigua where her husband was offered a job. Delighted with the prospect of a challenge rather than enduring bureaucracy, she dropped everything and moved there in 1984,  seizing  the  opportunity of fulfilling her childhood dream of painting full time.
Whilst bringing up her three young children, she slowly developed her painting techniques, mainly in watercolour and acrylic. Her subjects reflect the beauty and charm of the enchanted island of Antigua and to this day, inspiration is never lacking.
She is happiest when painting and ever joyful when others take equal pleasure in her art. She has given various shows around the Caribbean and in Venezuela and has exhibited in galleries on different islands. At present she runs her own Art Gallery at her lovely secluded waterfront residence at Fitches Creek, on Antigua’s east coast (near VC Bird International Airport) where she also has her studio. Visitors are welcome and may call in advance at +1(268)464 6084 or email Gilly at gillygobinet@me.com for information on opening times and how to get there. The route is well sign-posted from Pigotts Village onwards and the Art Gallery is just north of the lovely old protestant church of St. George’s.

Sailing enthusiast Carlo Falcone purchased Harmony Hall in September 2006. Carlo and Paola represented Antigua at the Barcelona Olympics in the Star Class; his son Shannon, 26 years old, after racing his second America's Cup with Prada Team, Luna Rossa, will race his third one with Team Oracle, headed by Russel Coutts. Undoubtedly, the sailing waters of Nonsuch Bay are second to none for racing dinghy's and keelboats, and attract the likes of Falcone Sailing enthusiasts. Although for years the bay has been a popular destination for yachts great and small, it has never been featured as a racing area in the international sailing agenda. Carlo, through the introduction of the Harmony Hall Yacht Club, is about to change this!
 
The Harmony Hall Yacht Club will be officially launched in December 2007 Some sailing legends have already been recruited and have agreed to become founding members: Dennis Conner, Russel Coutts, Shannon Falcone, Torben Grael, Mike Toppa and Poul-Richard Hoj-Jensen. The intention is to create a centre of excellent yacht racing. To this end, eight Dragons, ordered from Petticrows in the UK, the major Dragon Class builder, and with the ninth owned by Poul-Richard Hoj-Jensen himself will be used for fleet racing, with team, match and triple racing on the agenda as well. Russel Coutts, three times winner of the AmericaÕs Cup and Olympic Gold medalist in Finn will include the RC44Õs for an event to be staged in Nonsuch Bay. The Objective of this regatta would be a high profile, high quality sailing event in Antigua.
 
 
With Antigua already hosting such international events as Sailing Week and Classic Yacht Regatta through the Antigua Yacht Club, the addition of the Dragon World Cup in 2009/10 hosted by Harmony Hall Yacht Club will enhance the reputation of Antigua as a sailing centre of excellence.

A recording Studio located on the beautiful sister islands of Antigua and Barbuda, in the West Indies. It is housed in a renovated 17th century colonial style cottage which was part of a former sugar estate.
 
The idea behind Irie Fire Studio is that of a place where one could produce high quality recordings in a very relaxed and creative atmosphere.
 
It is hoped that this would help our clients realize their potential and achieve their goals on a local, and more importantly, an international scale. Our aim is to foster untapped talent in Antigua and the rest of the Caribbean and show what we are capable of offering the global community, as well as giving international Artistes the chance to record in a laid back, island environment.
 
Irie Fire Studio is located in the suburbs outside Antigua’s capital city, St. John’s.

KAW Management provides high quality, cost effective advice and services to both small and large financial and non financial institutions, as well as, government agencies in the areas of Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Fraud, Training and other complimentary Professional Services.  Our courteous, professional and qualified staff will ensure that systems are in place to protect your institution from risks and also streamline your operational processes so as to ensure effectiveness and efficiency.  KAW also organizes Conferences and Workshops both locally and internationally and we are the host of the annual AML/CFT Conference held in Antigua.
 
Most companies focus a lot on the bottom line and constantly question the need for AML compliance, fraud prevention and training.  What we sometimes overlook or ignore are the risks and costs that will be inherited for not complying.  In today’s business world, products and services are more complex and geographical distribution of clients is wider.  This requires more vigilance by businesses to avoid missteps that may lead to reputational risks, large fines and in some instances imprisonment of owners and employees.  The need for effective Anti-Money Laundering compliance and the Counter Financing of Terrorism measures in the financial services sector, as well as, the non-financial services sector, is ever increasing and regulations are becoming more stringent.  This means that companies now have to ensure that their AML/CFT programs are not only in place but also functioning effectively.
 
The occurrence of fraud only in financial institutions is surely just a myth.  Fraud can occur in any company. Companies are now more than ever realizing that if nothing is done to curb fraud; it not only erodes the ethical principles in an organization but also threatens the same bottom line that we focus so much attention on.  KAW can assist your business not only in fraud detection but also by assisting you to put measures in place to prevent and reduce fraud.  De-motivated and unhappy employees can also commit fraud independently or with a third party.  It is important that companies embrace ethical and moral principles and this should be embedded in the culture of the organization.  In order for this to be effective the tone must be set from the top; hence the need for proper corporate governance in the organization.
 
In addition, in this ever changing and dynamic world of business, employees have to be kept current and must re-tool in order to function effectively and efficiently in their jobs.  KAW can work with you to make it happen.  We can provide specialized training for the Board of Directors, Officers and all employees of your company in many areas.
 
Our “one stop shop” approach also provides for additional professional services.  We can also assist in risk management, operations management, portfolio planning, payroll services and business plans.  No matter your size, financial challenges or difficulties we are willing to solve your problems, service your needs and most importantly save you money in the long run
