The Sunshine Awards Organization announced in New Jersey that the women’s section of the Trinidad and Tobago Police Band known for their unique and electrifying live performances is scheduled to make its highly anticipated debut in the United States with a performance at the prestigious 36th Annual SUNSHINE Awards Celebration, scheduled for Saturday, October 19, 2024, at the Robert Treat Hotel, 50 Park Place, Newark, New Jersey 07102. This performance is regarded as a milestone as the band continues to expand its global reach. This appearance is expected to be one of the highlights of the evening.
The SUNSHINE Awards Program was founded 36 years ago to recognize excellence and accomplishments in the performing arts, education, science, humanity, and sports of the various Caribbean countries. Over the years, the program has expanded in depth and breadth with a global view, including the United States, and countries from Africa, South America, Central America, Europe, and Asia. In 1994, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, the organization responsible for the Annual Grammy Awards, endorsed the SUNSHINE Awards. The United Nations also gave its global endorsement in 1998. The SUNSHINE Awards Organization has also received many “Proclamations” from various levels of the United States Government. The women’s section of the Trinidad and Tobago Police Band is expected to draw significant attention underscoring the importance of cultural diversity.
