When is the next one?

We used to have the Cacique's, I think that was some type of artist award ceremony. Plus we have the gospel awards. I wonder when the next one is?

bump!

I dont know, but we need some secular music awards too. Like how I saw Barbados was doing.

Yes we do. I know we have the Cacique's, but that is drama I think. Man I need to stay in touch with the local scene in terms of culture. I am really horrible on this, and I see the need and actually LIKE Bahamian art and music.

Amos Fergusson paintings thrill me. And Ira Storr is still a favourite....

I was amazed with the talent at the National art gallery. My favorite was the Junkanoo costume in bronze. There was another one with a glass floor over hundreds over "mama" salt shakers. It sent a message and made me think.
