Culture:

The Caribbean is a cluster of small island nations own an inimitable  500 year history which best defines New World. It is a history of misrule among an ever changing succession of Kings and Queens who rarely if ever visited or invested. The largest immigrant group began as African slaves and retained their culture through the art of song, dance and story. Today many festivals (Carnivals) proudly express themselves re some of the biggest and greatest celebrations throughout North America and even Europe. They invite each of us to become a King or Queen and we wish to pass some of the skills and talents into making these Carnivals possible by passing on the tradition to our children.
