Caribbean Fest Stirring Up Brooklyn

Got Caribbean on your mind? Brooklyn’s only multi-ethnic Caribbean performing arts festival is coming around again, Saturday, Sptember 12, 2009. What’s new? Well, the event moves to a new location @ Prospect Heights Educational Campus, 883 Classon Avenue, Brooklyn, New York from 3 to 9 PM. We be jamming as Brooklyn Caribbean Youth Fest turns five years old.

Hamptonians New York’s (HNY) team do not want you bogged-down or tripped by the word ‘youth’. Its an affair with something for everyone. Talents from across NYC Caribbean neighborhoods come to strut their stuff and stir up Brooklyn. On this stage performers entertain with passion, color and ENERGY. The intermix of culture is both nostalgic and discovering. Things old, some new and things in between. A great attraction where you will not dig deep into your pocket/purse(s).

Every September, HNY breakouts this outrageously energetic family affair Brooklyn Youth Caribbean Fest that celebrates the diversity of the Caribbean World. It is the kinda dessert one loves to have after an entree that needs a sinfully delicious ending. As such we have created this explosion of Caribbean culture which is ginormously exhilarating and will make you applaud with delight.

The whole idea is to bring together families and performers and let them loose to enjoy each other’s company. Brooklyn Youth Caribbean Fest is telling our stories well in songs, dances, poetry and more. The showcase is going to blaze a fire of marvelous synergies into the joy regions of the right brain then deposit a high degree of pleasure on the frontal hemisphere of the left. Music, poetry and movement blending into a grand symphony ... a fusion that have the ability to move one laterally. Attendees will not know what hit them ‘til its over and believe me every year things get sweeter.

Batingua Arts is raising the bar, planning an even more electrifying performance than ever. The only nail-biting moment will be anticipation of what’s coming on next on the program. This ingenious and versatile affair is guaranteed to take you to a tropical high. We are asking people to come and secure a seat from early. While the event is FREE tickets will be given out.

*Due to overwhelming requests every year to add performers to the program impromptu, HNY is inviting artist/performers to an Open Mic situation. There is going to be four(4) 10 minutes spots available for anyone to come on stage to show what you got.
