The Embassy of Haiti's Trivia Night and Open House




        On Thursday September 14, 2017 the Embassy of Haiti hosted Trivia Night Thursdays, an evening complete with laughter, games, new friends, and complimentary beverages.

       The event takes place weekly as a way to share the colorful and rich culture that is Haiti to a broader audience in the Washington Metropolitan area. The extremely diverse group of attendees were treated to a fantastic tour of the premises complete with artwork from Haitian artists as well as information on both known and unknown figures that complete its history.




    The group was broken down to smaller teams in the effort to win an unknown but coveted surprise. After several competitive and extremely entertaining rounds, only one team was prized with the fabulous gift of pillows designed by a top Haitian artist and a dinner with the Haitian Ambassador, Mr. Paul Altidor himself.

You can see said truth through colors in paintings that hang on museum walls, or through the perfect collision of fractions that play aloud and create the most beautiful musical pieces the ears can hear. It's called God. The beauty of the world is the little glimpses of God that hang around every corner, in every thought, in everything. Some are a tad better at recognizing the glimpses and some are great at creating it. We call these creators ARTISTS.                                                                           Japanese artist Yoyoi Kusama displays her understanding through works that promote messages that we all subconsciously know but ...
