a taste of cuba

Just a taste of the first interdisciplinary trip to Cuba with group of seniors and juniors from Art, History of Latin America and Advanced Spanish classes. In Havana, we experienced a complete immersion experience: visits, sight seeing, lectures, and conversations with such artistic representatives as the architect Miguel Coyula or Estela Bravo, a documentary filmmaker; and met with University students in the context of a community work project, as well as doing various tours and workshops with artists in the studios of National Art Schools. By the end of our journey, everyone gained a much better historical and cultural knowledge of the country, a much more informed appreciation for its beauty and challenges, and exercised, explored or discovered, linguistic as well as artistic skills!
