After enjoying a drink at the Caribbean Fun Bar, step into the Costume Museum, the largest room in We Culture. This immersive space showcases dozens of meticulously handcrafted costumes, each narrating the rich history of Caribbean carnivals.
Created by the founders with over 50 years of experience, the costumes can be explored at your own pace or through a guided tour. Passionate narrators bring the history and vibrancy of each costume to life.
In the center, workbenches display the creation process, bead by bead, feather by feather. This mini “mas camp” echoes traditional workshops where creativity flows with music and camaraderie, giving you a taste of Caribbean culture.
Experience this vibrant celebration of Caribbean heritage and witness how these magnificent costumes are born.
Beyond the Costume Museum lies The Vault, a colossal space brimming with all the essential elements that bring Caribbean carnival costumes to life. This vast warehouse is a treasure trove of vibrant beads, luxurious fabrics, delicate feathers, and specialized tools sourced from around the globe. Every inch of this room holds the raw materials of creativity.
The Vault invites you to witness the behind-the-scenes magic of costume creation. See where artisans gather their supplies and draw inspiration, surrounded by an explosion of colors and textures. Whether you’re marveling at bolts of glittering fabric or running your fingers through soft plumes, you’ll feel the heartbeat of carnival in every corner.
This is more than just a storage space—it’s a sanctuary for creators, a place where tradition and innovation meet. Get a glimpse of what it’s like to stand at the heart of a costume maker’s heaven, and appreciate the craft behind the unforgettable spectacle of Caribbean carnival.
Comfort throughout the We Culture experience is a top priority. Our facility boasts extremely large, air-conditioned restrooms for both males and females, ensuring wheelchair accessibility and numerous stalls to accommodate large groups. Additionally, there is a costume changing area available, perfect for those who want to try on a costume or do their makeup.
At We Culture, we embrace the fun and glamour of dress-up, offering no restrictions to your enjoyment. Who doesn’t love a good game of dress-up?
The Music Rooms at We Culture offer an immersive experience into the vibrant sounds of the Caribbean. These rooms showcase the diverse musical heritage of the islands, from the rhythmic beats of steelpan and soca to the soulful melodies of reggae and calypso.
As you explore, you’ll encounter a rich collection of musical artifacts, historical recordings, and interactive exhibits that celebrate the evolution of Caribbean music. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or new to the genre, the Music Rooms provide a dynamic and engaging journey through the heart and soul of Caribbean musical culture.
The Caribbean Fun Bar is also available for private events. Inquire at check-in for more information. Remember, the fun starts at the bar!
The Art Gallery Room at We Culture showcases the exquisite work of Larysa Malsagova, a talented painter whose vibrant pieces capture the essence of Caribbean Carnival and folklore.
This gallery invites you to experience the intricate details and rich narratives of the Caribbean through Larysa’s vivid paintings, which bring to life the colorful costumes, feathers, and cultural stories of the islands. Each artwork tells a unique story, making this gallery a visual and cultural feast that celebrates the spirit of the Caribbean.
One of the most impressive rooms in We Culture is the History Rooms. Preserving costumes and artifacts from past Caribbean Carnivals has been challenging, as many get discarded or destroyed during parades.
The founders have excelled in preserving a vast collection of costume pieces, original design artworks, newspaper clippings, and articles, some dating back 75 years. This makes the History Rooms a unique space to explore the rich history and evolution of Caribbean carnival craftsmanship.
