About our designers…………….
Richard Bartholomew
Richard Bartholomew’s Carnival career began in 1973 and continues up to the present. His own
children's band started with 20 children and grew steadily to a bumper 600 kids! His bandleader
days ended in 1996 after 23 years during which he won 12 band of the year titles. But his
designing skills continued and he designed for several bands at home for many many years and
then went further afield and designed bands for New York, Toronto, Grenada and the British
Virgin Is. He also conducted workshops in the East Midlands in Great Britain and produced
bands for three cities, Nottingham, Leicester and Derby.
In 1994, he was awarded the Humming Bird Medal for his contribution to culture in Trinidad
and Tobago.
In 2003, he was commissioned by the Cayman Batabano committee to design and produce
bands for their Junior Carnival and maintained that design position until 2014.
Presently, he continues to design and produce costumes both at home and abroad.
LaToya Als
Mystique Mas was founded in 2012 by Latoya Als. She began her journey into the carnival culture
arts at a young age. After her first experience, she was instantly addicted. She began to help
produce mas for various big bands in Toronto. Latoya decided to take her love of mas making to
another level when she decided to start designing her own sections for other carnivals in
Toronto, Miami, Houston, Nottinghill, Grenada, Barbados and Cayman Islands.
