Pamela Carlton, a long‑time resident of Hamilton and active participant in local civic life, died peacefully at her home on September 7, 2026, at the age of 68. Her passing was announced by her family, who shared a brief statement expressing gratitude for the community’s support.

Carlton was known for her work with the Hamilton Community Arts Centre, where she served as volunteer coordinator for over a decade, helping to bring a range of cultural events to the island’s capital. She also played a key role in the annual “Bermuda Music & Heritage Festival,” organizing outreach programmes for young musicians and ensuring that local traditions were showcased to visitors. Her dedication to fostering a vibrant cultural scene earned her recognition from the Bermuda Tourism Board and the local arts council.

Beyond the arts, Carlton was a respected member of the Hamilton Residents’ Association, advocating for pedestrian safety and community gardens. She was survived by her husband, two daughters, and six grandchildren. A memorial service will be held at St. Mary’s Anglican Church on September 14, with a celebration of life to follow at the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club. The community mourns the loss of a beloved neighbour, mentor, and steadfast advocate for the arts and civic engagement.
