IN THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS NOVEMBER 9TH - 11TH 2013

St. Kitts Department of Culture invites families, friends and visitors to St. Kitts and Nevis to join in the seasonal celebration of Christmas by attending "In The Spirit of Christmas" held annually in the Circus located in the heart of Basseterre St. Kitts.

Monday December 9th to 11th starting at 7:30 pm each night the circus is transformed and comes to life with variety of artistic performances and special cultural performances from community groups who are passionate about spreading joy and goodwill.

Traditionally at this time of year Kittitians and Nevisians give thanks through workshop for all the blessings that they have received and demonstrate their love, compassion and sharing through service.

In the Spirit of Christmas is a hallmark event that brings the community together to enjoy gifts from talented people expressed through music, dance, theatre and food, while reflecting on family values and the things in life that are truly
precious to us.

Join us around the historic "Berkeley Memorial"
as we remember the spirit of Christmas together.

The European Union is interested in creating an EU-CARIFORUM Platform for the Culture and Creative Industries, to promote business cooperation and cultural exchanges between the EU and CARIFORUM Member States.  It is envisioned that the culture and creative industries would form an alliance to work on potential business opportunities. A strategy to establish such a platform could have the following features:

• Identify European and Caribbean stakeholders interested in creating this activity with a view to finding cooperation partners.

 • Identify areas of common interest such as promoting investment in local creative industries

• Organise cultural missions to cities in the EU and the Cariforum countries

• Consider the organisation of hosting cultural events, in selected countries that could take the form of government-backed specific industry missions

• Consider funding the participation of 10 Cariform groups to important international trade fairs in the EU

• Develop an outreach programme to target SMEs in Europe and Cariforum

Host an annual Conference on Creative Industries in Europe and in the Cariforum region.
