Charlestown Nevis (February 25, 2007)
The New Fine Arts Theatre for Nevis will be named for Michael Herald Sutton.  Premier of Nevis the Hon. Joseph Parry made the commitment on Sunday afternoon while addressing thousands of Nevisians at the Celebration of Life, thanksgiving service in honor of Michael Herald Sutton.

Following the ceremony, in a live radio interview with guest commentator, Stevenson Manners, Premier Parry further confirmed the Nevis Island Administration’s commitment and explained why his Administration was moving forward in this direction.

“I think that none other than Michael Herald Sutton will deserve to have this honor in his name. It will be a great gesture on our [NIA] part especially for the young people to see us [NIA] honor persons who have made difference.  He has indeed made a great difference in music and in the lives of Nevisians and young people especially.

We [NIA] hope that by the 10th July of this year that we [NIA] would have organized to name a number of things after persons because we need to have landmarks in Nevis and it must be a Historical landmark.  Landmarks that indicate to the young people that these persons have been achievers and these are people to emulate and inspire, and so in the arts, in education, in different fields we expect to honor people dead and or alive”, the Premier said.
