Great article on Evening Standard interviewing Justine Simons OBE on her strategy for London's cultural development, shedding light to the pivotal role of public art as a driving force in shaping our cities. Public art isn't merely about embellishing urban spaces; it's a dynamic tool for fostering cultural identity, stimulating dialogue, and enriching community experiences. As cities evolve, so does the significance of public art in reflecting and engaging with diverse narratives and perspectives. As professionals in various industries, we should recognise the importance of integrating public art into urban planning and development projects. By doing so, we contribute to the creation of vibrant, culturally rich communities that resonate with people on a profound level. #PublicArt #UrbanCulture #CommunityEngagement #CityDevelopment #CulturalIdentity

The Carnival in Dominica stands as one of the island's grandest celebrations, deeply embedded in its cultural fabric. Originally rooted in the tradition of masquerade, wherein revelers adorned masks to obscure their identities, Carnival evolved into a vibrant spectacle filled with color, costumes, and the rhythmic pulse of drums. This tradition owes much to the rich tapestry of African influence, where the love for elaborate attire and spirited drumbeats infused the festivities with energy and vitality. As the masquerade celebrations grew in scale and organization, giving rise to a myriad of shows and competitions, the event was officially christened as Carnival. This transformation marked a significant milestone, signifying the maturation and formalization of what had been a grassroots expression of culture into a structured and widely celebrated festival. Carnival in Dominica serves as a testament to the island's heritage and community spirit, drawing locals and visitors alike into its spirited embrace. From its humble origins in masquerade to its present-day extravaganza, Carnival remains a cherished tradition that encapsulates the essence of Dominica's vibrant cultural identity.
