Aleta Astwood, widely known as “The Singing Apple,” continues to elevate the profile of the Turks and Caicos Islands on the international stage after headlining a sold-out audience at the inaugural Restored Woman Experience: From Loss to Legacy Luncheon held in West Palm Beach on April 18, 2026.
Astwood, who has been traveling internationally sharing her music ministry and performances, captivated more than 100 women attending the transformational luncheon centered on healing, restoration, and rebuilding after personal loss.
Astwood’s emotionally charged performance emerged as one of the highlights of the gathering, further strengthening her growing international reputation and her ability to connect deeply with audiences through music and storytelling.
Supported by the City of West Palm Beach, the event also featured a panel discussion with women sharing personal testimonies of overcoming trauma and rebuilding their lives.
The luncheon also supported the Extraordinary Kids Provision Center, an organization providing assistance and resources to children and families in need. Organizers presented a $3,000 donation to the organization, which later increased to $4,000 after a contribution from Astwood’s mother, Paula Arthur.
Arthur made the donation in memory of her late daughter, Ayanna Astwood, who passed away earlier this year.
Following the success of the inaugural luncheon, organizers say plans are already underway to expand the experience and reach more women in the future.
Astwood’s continued international appearances mark another proud milestone for the Turks and Caicos Islands as the singer continues representing the territory through music, inspiration, and cultural pride abroad.
