Minister of State in the Prime Minister’s Office with responsibility for Youth and Culture, Senator Shane Archer, wants the creative sector in Barbados transformed into a year-round economic engine.
His contention is that culture must generate opportunities and income long after the Crop Over season ends.
The senator delivered the keynote address at Saturday’s Ceremonial Delivery of the Last Canes at Queen’s Park, which officially launched the 2026 Crop Over Festival.
