overview

We are delighted to announce the launch of the first Mustique Photographer of the Year competition, an annual competition to find the best photograph of Mustique. During these unprecedented times we want to encourage our Mustique community to post and share their favourite memories of our beloved tropical island on Instagram. 

Judges

This year’s competition is going to be judged by renowned photographer Kate Martin, leading contemporary artist, Marc Quinn, fashion designer and art collector Tommy Hilfiger and Managing Director of the Mustique Company, Roger Pritchard.

Dates

The competition is open to anyone who has taken a beautiful photograph on or of Mustique, it launches on 1st May 2020 and the deadline for submissions is 31st October 2020. At that point a shortlist will be selected and published, from which a winner will be chosen and announced on 4th December 2020.

The full shortlist will be entered into a virtual exhibition on the Mustique Island website, and the winner will be printed, framed and a copy will be hung in the Cotton House hotel on Mustique and a second print will be auctioned for charity in our Boxing Day Auction in Basil’s Bar.
