Mashramani 2015 was officially launched yesterday under the theme, ‘One People, One Culture, One Celebration’, conceptualised by Ariel Gittens, and crowds turned out in front of the Ministry of Culture, Youth, and Sport on Main Street to witness the heralding of the annual event.
They were treated to performances by local artistes including reigning Soca Monarch Kwesi ‘Ace’ Edmonson and the National Steel Orchestra. The performances, most Mashramani-inspired, were lauded by local comedian Kirk ‘Chow Pow’ Jardine who encouraged locals to support their own.
“Once we keep nurturing and supporting these talents we will definitely grow in terms of culture,”
