Amerindian Heritage Month promotes artistic talent

TIMES INT'L

The Ministry of Amerindian Affairs, at the corner of Quamina and Thomas streets in Georgetown, was artistically highlighted September 22 by children who came out in their numbers from various parts of the country, to paint their interpretation of Amerindian Heritage Month’s theme, ‘Embracing our Identity, Celebrating our Culture’ on its fence.

The images chosen reflected the children’s cultural heritage, as colourful paintings of animals, forests and indigenous activities gave evidence of their talent and creativity that illustrated their homage for their rich culture.
This was just one of the many activities held for Amerindian Heritage Month 2012.
