THE EXHIBITION:

Photographer, Michael C. Smith, has been shooting Boston’s annual Trinidad-style Carnival for over 10 years. Fascinated by the colors, design and workmanship that is required to make these elaborate costumes a reality and the short life span of these designs, he has been determined to document this truly wonderful Trinidad-style Carnival.

In addition to his photography, Michael published the first calendar on Boston Carnival in 2000 and several calendars thereafter.  He also publishes the Boston Carnival Village magazine, “de culture warrior”.  His portfolio also includes the first survey of the Boston Carnival in 2005 and author/publisher of this website.

This first exhibition is another step in what Michael describes as making Boston Carnival what Macy’s Day parade is to New York City. These seasonal costumes bring new designs and ideas which light up the parade route with vibrancy, color, soca and calypso music that fire the imagination and enthrall the spectators to “Streets of Color”.

This cultural activity has been the corner stone of the community for over 35 years. Join us as we celebrate the culture and the artesian who work tirelessly to bring this fantastic culture that is a Trinidad-style Carnival to Boston. Visit one of the locations listed on the right of this page.   Thank you for viewing the Streets of Color Exhibition.
