What looks like an elaborate Junkanoo costume on parade day can begin with simple materials, a creative vision, and hours of careful work by hand. From cardboard and wire to paper, beads, and intricate details, every part of the costume has a purpose and reflects the creativity, tradition, and craftsmanship that make Junkanoo such a powerful part of Bahamian culture.

You can spot the costumes from across the street and hear the drums before you even turn the corner, but do you know the story behind all of it?

At The Bahamas Museum of Junkanoo, right at Prince George Wharf, you can see how a celebration started by enslaved Africans grew into a tradition that UNESCO now recognizes as part of the world's Intangible Cultural Heritage.
