ABOUT US

This is an educational website created to further an understanding of the various Carnival designers of the 20th and early 21st century, who often also played as masqueraders. The site seeks to inform on the many aesthetic forms, the creative processes and evolution of skills. They have contributed towards the visual spectacle, historical perspectives, social outlet and the art of masquerade on the streets of the UK and other global towns and cities. This needs to be recorded for future generations in order to keep alive an awareness of carnival arts and its history. Future development of this site is planned to provide a more comprehensive overview.
