@carnicycle https://t.co/NYDk7NFaVO https://t.co/ukz25eWZdF exists! they recycle backpacks and costumes - but it would be great to also have a local/Antigua-based intitative
folks should get in touch with @carnicycle on IG. Danii and her team recycle Carnival costumes. band leaders should also connect with Danii. there should either be a section dedicated to upcycling costumes from a band or a new band completely created from upcycled costumes. 👀
Important update from Caribbean Airlines (@iflycaribbean). The air carrier is appealing to all Domestic passengers to please do NOT come to the airports (Piarco or A.N.R. Robinson International Airports) until further advised. #HurricaneBeryl
😭 not you having one of my faves on your podcast 👏🏾 yay.
Folks should follow @Daniimachines && her nonprofit @carnicycle where her team recycles && upcycles Carnival costumes. This Tobago babe && her team is doing incredible work around the region for Carnival.
✨🇹🇹🫶🏾🇧🇸🇯🇲✨
PSA: Please don’t throw away your Kadooment costumes! @carnicycle collects costumes + repurposes them! We didn’t organise collections this year but I’ll put something together. Stay tuned. Please don’t throw them away ♻️
Because the patterns are so so unique, the backpacks are harder to upcycle than a feather back pack which can be broken down into different components and reused. It's easier to recycle if the country has the infrastructure and program to do so. But most do not. We'll give it a D
People continue to underestimate how conservative Caribbean culture is because they see pictures of Carnival or people having fun on the TL. 😭 Babes i grew up thinking having your bra straps visible was a cardinal sin
Taste of carnival costing 30-40 million?!!! Better they distribute that to all the vendors and mas makers that have been affected by the lack of carnival bc Wdh
