Apart from the rich legacy of the artists commissioned by the Knights of St John, there are many works of excellent contemporary in Malta today.The Centre for Creativity at St James Cavalier, Valletta, showcases their work. Other regular venues in the capital for art, sculpture and ceramics’ exhibitions are The National Museum of Fine Arts, and the National Museum of Archaeology.
