NATIONAL ARCHIVIST and entrepreneur Jeon Julien, has officially launched the Heritage Keepsakes Collection, a handcrafted line of souvenirs inspired by the history, culture, and traditions of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.The collection was launched on Saturday, June 27, 2026 as “a heartfelt tribute to her late father, Cameron Adams, who passed away in 2013”, a release on her behalf states.

“For Jeon, the launch represents more than the introduction of a new product line; it is the fulfilment of a lifelong dream shared by her father.

“ A skilled craftsman, Cameron Adams always envisioned seeing his handcrafted creations displayed in one of the country’s leading souvenir stores, Voyager SVG.”

Jeon is said to consider the June launch as a meaningful way to honour the memory of her father while continuing the legacy of creativity and craftsmanship he inspired.

The collection features handcrafted earrings, brooches, key chains, bag clips, and fridge magnets inspired by the rich history, traditions, landmarks, flora, fauna, and everyday life of St.Vincent and the Grenadines.

Reflecting on the collection, Jeon is quoted to have said: “As National Archivist, I spend every day preserving our nation’s history. Through the Heritage Keepsakes Collection, I wanted to bring that

history beyond the archives and into people’s everyday lives. Each piece tells a story, inspired by my childhood memories of growing up in Belair and by the cultural traditions that make St. Vincent and the Grenadines unique. My hope is that these keepsakes inspire pride among Vincentians and create lasting memories for visitors to our islands”.
