Free and open to the public. Everyone welcome!
Dear Friends,
The Connecticut Cultural Heritage Arts Program (CHAP) has moved to its new home at the Connecticut Historical Society in Hartford! Please join us for the first of our exhibits here at the CHS.
Mas: Carnival Costumes from Hartford's West Indian Community opens on August 27, 2015. The exhibit highlights the work of this year's Mas Camp students and volunteers, who created their own traditional Carnival costumes and performed with them at the West Indian Parade and other community events this summer. We'll have music by the Hartford Steel Symphony, delicious Caribbean food, and masqueraders wearing vibrantly colored costumes. The teens will receive their certificates of completion of the six-week intensive work-study course. The Mas Project was originally developed with the Institute for Community Research.
This exhibition is sponsored by Ellen M. Brown. Additional support for the Mas Project was generously provided by the City of Hartford Arts and Heritage Jobs Grant for 2015, Pedro E. Segarra, Mayor, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Connecticut Office of the Arts, the Institute for Community Research and the Connecticut Historical Society.
