Cuban Art & Culture
Artwork by various Havana-based artists.
Hope for the Heart of Cuba.
We are dedicated to supporting Cuban artists and promoting art and culture in Cuba. We accomplish this by providing artists with much-needed materials or instruments that support their craft; facilitating artist exchanges and residencies; and leading Havana-based art tours that directly support Cuban artists.
Artists are also central to our work with Carmen and Rey’s Kids. Numerous prominent artists in and around Havana have donated to various art auctions held in both Cuba and the U.S. since 2007. Some of these renowned artists include: Alan Manuel, Alicia de la Campa Pak, Sinecio Cuétara Menecia, José Ángel Vincench, Rafael Pérez Alonso, Enrique Alonso Daussá, Ítalo René Expósito, and Pedro Pablo Oliva.
