Common Ties is about honouring and celebrating aspects of Caribbean culture and heritage – traditions with continuing relevance today. A range of guest presentations will entertain, enthuse, and enthral, whilst also helping us all to reaffirm those common ties which bound together our parents, grandparents, and ancestors, and continue to sustain us today.
The theme for this year’s event is Celebrating Our Resilience. We are living through challenging times, and it is vital to keep in mind the individual and collective journeys we have already navigated over the generations.
