Reason for Participating
I am applying to participate in the Saint Lucia National Carnival Queen Pageant because
I believe that this opportunity will be a journey of self-discovery. By participating in this
pageant I will learn many valuable life skills and lessons, and will undoubtedly become a
more confident and poised young lady. I love that carnival encapsulates the true essence
of our culture through different art forms, such as the vividly bright costumes, music, art and
dance. As an artist and contender I am extremely excited to be a part of this experience.
Being provided with this platform I will have the chance to showcase my skills and talents
on a national stage and to realize one of my dreams of making a positive contribution
towards the arts whilst inspiring others.
