Cultural icon and Moko Jumbie Master Junior Bisnath, whose life’s work has kept hundreds of young people off the streets, will receive the Hummingbird Medal Bronze for his contribution to culture.

For more than three decades, Bisnath has used moko jumbie walking, woodworking and cultural performance to give children from some of San Fernando’s most disadvantaged communities a sense of discipline, purpose and pride.
