caribarts.org is an online ‘home’ for and about Caribbean arts and culture. It is a source of information on a wide range of topics, and a forum for interchange between artists. Our companion blog site is at http://caribarts.wordpress.com. The aims of this website are to provide facilities to connect, promote and highlight Caribbean artists worldwide and to offer a single repository of information on Caribbean cultural practice. In part, these aims involve supporting Caribbean arts & culture development and activities through the provision of information and tools to help build an online Caribbean arts community. Directories and reference listings are updated regularly, and a repository of information on cultural practice is growing, alongside records of current developments and issues. The site’s directories / listings cover individuals, groups and institutions involved in the arts and culture of the region, and also offer a variety of information on artistic genres and folk practices. Artists can register to be listed in caribarts’ personnel directories at no cost. These listings are limited to demographic data and may include one picture attachment. Caribarts.org also offers artists a more comprehensive subsite package which allows them to expose their work to a web audience and includes an email address. News and features are posted to the ArtCafe Lounge page, and the events calendar is updated continuously.
