Saint Lucia's 40th Independence Anniversary Milestone

On Feb. 22, 1979, Saint Lucia gained Independence from Britain. Forty years later, the island has endured challenges and celebrated great achievements to become one of the gems of the region. In commemoration of this momentous occasion, Saint Lucians, back home and abroad, will wave their flags high and with hearts filled with pride throughout this year under the theme "All In: Our Journey, Our Future."

The Embassy of Saint Lucia to the United States of America and the Saint Lucia Association of the Metro Washington Area came together to celebrate the occasion.
