Local Design House Akilah’s Creative Expressions and Sincerity Studio of Trinidad will put on a series of fashion shows and concerts around Guyana from August 4. The tour, dubbed I Am SOCA was launched on Friday last at Bethel Gospel Hall Church and this past Sunday at the Children Ministries Department in Agricola.
The shows will see performances from various churches including Pentecostal, Assemblies of God, Seventh Day Adventist and Methodist.
Designer Akilah Atherley said, “The show is [geared] to empower young people in the kingdom of God by using their talents in song, dance, poetry and fashion. It is my aim to have us all come together and worship God, the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. We will be visiting hospitals, institutions and churches doing motivational talks with young people to try and help them find their way through Christ and encourage them not to give up on their dreams and talents that they have been blessed with by God.”
