Dominica - The Karifuna Cultural Group

The Karifuna Cultural Group entertains visitors at the Kalinago Barana Autê...

Today, like the Karina Cultural Group, Karifuna stages regular pulsating cultural performances at the Kalinago Barana Autê.


The Karifuna Cultural Group started in 1979 with the objective of reviving and maintaining the remaining aspects of the Kalinago culture. Over the years, the group has placed the Kalinago culture it’s in rightful place within the context of Dominican culture.
Employing popular theater techniques, the group has attempted to educate the residents of the Kalinago Territory focusing their attention on the many issues and challenges in their lives and helping to find solutions to these challenges.
