Pritchard, The Nassau Florist, Something&#8217;s Different Edible Art and Bahamia Rentals.<\/p>\n<p>During the pre-jollification members night, a constant flow of delightful &#8220;finger foods&#8221; was provided by Alexandra&#8217;s catering. The Something&#8217;s Different &#8220;edible art&#8221; stall with literally hundreds of brightly decorated and uniquely flavoured cup cakes also proved to be popular, especially with the youngest BNT members in attendance.<\/p>\n<p>Once again the silent auction of art pieces, donated by exhibiting artists, proved to be a major fundraiser for the Trust. Recently elected National Trust president Mr. Neil McKinney noted &#8211; &#8220;It was a hugely successful event, and we at the Trust really appreciate the support of the Public for &#8220;Jollification&#8221; which is a major fundraiser for us and enables us to continue our work.<\/p>\n<p>It is also an opportunity for dozens of Bahamian artisans, artists and crafts persons, to display and sell their creations to a wider public. Our continuing major sponsor, Bristol Wines and Spirits, obviously contributes to the increasing success of the event and we are happy to report that a record number of attendees became new members or renewed their membership in the Bahamas National Trust&#8221;, he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Source: P.S.
