DOMFESTA 2017 continues with an 'International Fiesta' at the Old Mill Cultural Centre Saturday May 27

​DOMFESTA 2017 celebrations continue with an 'International Fiesta' scheduled to take place at the Old Mill Cultural Centre on Saturday May 27 from 5pm. This Fiesta will feature food, music, short films, art, fashion modelling, live music and dance performances representing cultures of Cuba, Venezuela, China, France, Ghana and Nigeria in West Africa. 
 
The fiesta provides an international dimension to DOMFESTA. It is an opportunity for the Dominican population to know more about the culture of the countries being featured, countries which have a significant presence in Dominica in terms of student population, embassies and development cooperation projects.
 
The fiesta is a family-friendly event, and is free and open to the public. Parents are encouraged to take their children along. The fiesta is being organized by the Cultural Division. Another international element of DOMFESTA 2017 is a puppet show produced by two French artistic companies, and presented by the Alliance Francaise at the Arawak House of Culture on May 31 at 5:00pm. This event will bring down the curtains on DOMFESTA 2017.
 
Meanwhile, the Cultural Industries Information Fair, originally carded for Friday 26th May at the Windsor Park Stadium, has been postponed until further notice.
