Photo courtesy of @chokarella ============================ What does the acronym CARIFESTA mean? CARIFESTA stands for the Caribbean Festival of Arts. 2. What is CARIFESTA? CARIFESTA is the region's roving, multidisciplinary, mega arts festival which attracts a wide range of creative artists from various Caribbean and Latin American countries. 3. When and where was the first CARIFESTA? The first CARIFESTA was held in Guyana in 1972. 4. What was the idea behind CARIFESTA? CARIFESTA was the culmination of the idea that started in 1970 when participants at an Artists and Writers Convention in Guyana complained about the absence of an appropriate vehicle to showcase the rich cultural heritage of the Region and at the same time give recognition to its outstanding artists and art forms. They voiced their disappointment to the then Prime Minister of Guyana, Hon. Linden Forbes Sampson Burnham, who decided that Guyana would initiate the process by organizing the first CARIFESTA. #HaitianBusinesses #Haiti #chokarella #Carifesta #Barbados #Caribbean #Festival #ArtFestival
