JOIN US AS WE CELEBRATE AMERINDIAN HERITAGE 2023!!!
The one-month celebration every September has increasingly attracted local and international interest and attention as more and more Guyanese become increasingly aware of the contributions of Amerindians in the Arts and Development. A Village host is chosen annually. For 2023, the Amerindian Heritage Village is Batavia, Region 7. All villages celebrate the month through various activities in which The Ministry is always represented.
The month-long celebrations include the following activities:
- – Media Launch
- -Interfaith Service
- – Launch Ceremony
- – Food and Craft Exhibition
- – Cultural Extravaganza
- – Reflection and Exhibition on the life and Works of Stephen Campbell
- – Village Heritage Day Celebration-St. Cuthberts
- – Sports and Family day
- – Amerindian Heritage Dinner
