Calgarians turn out to enjoy a taste of the Carribean
The taste of Jamaica is one of a growing number of cultural festivals that highlight Calgary’s increasingly multicultural makeup, and helped kick off Calgary’s summer festival season with a bang.
Inside the Thorncliffe Greenview community centre, some Calgarians wandered from food kiosks to booths, while others sat at tables in front of a large stage that featured multiple live performances through the day.
Dancers in flowing white costumes paraded around in synchronized motion as Jamaican patties were doled out. T-shirts displaying the flag and colours of Jamaica covered numerous merchandise tables.
