Nassau,
The Bahamas - Minister of Youth, Sports and Culture, the Hon. Michael
Pintard addressed the opening session of the 2018 National Junkanoo
Conclave held and the Thomas A. Robinson National Stadium on February
15, 2018. The three-day conclave brought together Junkanoo leaders,
representatives and stakeholders from throughout The Bahamas to voice
their concerns, learn about new initiatives and chart the way forward
for the Bahamian art form. A week-long Junkanoo festival at the end of
the year is being considered, rather than have just two parades.
