The Board of Directors and Management of Queen’s Hall is clarifying a misunderstanding in some quarters regarding the renaming of its auditorium to the Winifred Atwell Auditorium.
Via a media release, the Board of Queen’s Hall says the initiative was not a renaming exercise and notes there has never been a dedication of the Auditorium until now.
The Board points out the decision to dedicate the Auditorium to Winifred Atwell was approved by the Government of Trinidad and Tobago.
General Manager of Queen’s Hall, Garfield George, says the Auditorium now bearing Winifred Atwell’s name stands as a living homage to her artistry and a celebration of our national heritage.
