About

Inspired by the legendary soca anthem, “Get Something and Wave!,” this hands-on workshop invites participants to create their own custom carnival flag using block printing techniques.

Choose from traditional carnival-inspired imagery, like the silhouette of a moko jumbie, a steelpan, or other iconic symbols, to design a flag that celebrates the diversity and artistry of Carnival. Participants will leave with a one-of-a-kind flag ready to wave with pride.
