Carnival Culture Gets A Boost
posted (July 28, 2015)
When you hear about a carnival workshop - you know that it's not about teaching revelers how to wind their waists - cause they know all about that. But carnival trainer Glendon Morris was in Belize for a 2 week workshop with local carnival bands. It's the Trinidadian's first time in Belize and he met with about 16 carnival bands to enhance their costume design and overall presentation. We met with Morris today and he told us why these workshops are important for Belize and what we can expect to see in this year's Carnival.

Morris has organized similar workshops in other parts of the world including the US. He plans on returning to Belize for follow up training sessions.
