We are thrilled to share some remarkable news that will add an artistic twist to your celebration of Dominica's Independence Day. As a granddaughter of Dominican (and St. Lucian) immigrants, Venessa is passionate about celebrating her heritage, so she has joined forces with the prestigious Sakafet London to introduce a special edition range of art prints. Together, we aim to pay tribute to the vibrant culture and history of Dominica on this significant day, 3rd November.
Before diving into the artistic collaboration, let's explore three interesting facts about Dominica's Independence Day:
1. The path to sovereignty
On 3rd November 1978, Dominica officially became an independent country, freed from British colonial rule. The adoption of Dominica's Constitutional Ordinance marks the culmination of years of struggle and negotiation.
2. Natural island
Dominica is often called the “Nature Island of the Caribbean” due to its lush, unspoiled landscape and breathtaking biodiversity. The island's commitment to preserving its natural beauty is celebrated every National Day, highlighting the nation's commitment to environmental sustainability.
3. Colourful celebration
Dominica's Independence Day is a vibrant and joyful celebration with parades, cultural performances and traditional costumes. The national colors of blue, yellow, black and white are proudly displayed throughout the festival.
Let's now turn our attention to the heart of this announcement, our collaborative art project with Sakafet London.
Together we have created a collection of wall art prints that beautifully blend Dominica's rich heritage, stunning natural landscapes and our own artistic expression. These prints will not only enhance your living space, but will also serve as a testament to Dominica's journey towards independence and cultural diversity.
Stay tuned for the grand unveiling of our special edition artworks for Dominican Independence Day. Each work encapsulates the essence of this remarkable nation and its drive for sovereignty, environmental stewardship, and cultural pride.
As we celebrate this special day, we invite you to join us in honouring Dominica's Independence Day through the lens of art. Follow our journey on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, and shop the Sakafet collection.
