Meet the people of Cuba and learn about art from the Americas and the World!
The week will be devoted to meeting and sharing ideas with Cuban artists, curators and the everyday people of Havana. The contemporary art of Cuba, Latin America, Asia and Africa will be fully displayed throughout the city, making this curated event the only place on the Globe where you can see all of this work together in one place. For American art experts and aficionados alike, the Havana Bienal is a good way to stay in touch with developments in the visual arts of these regions.
Wall to wall art with a tropical breeze!
Your visit will happen during the month-long Havana Bienal. The city comes alive during this international celebration of art and culture, many venues open-up to fabulous installations. Havana has recently experienced a foodie revolution where many wonderful new private restaurants have opened to the delight of locals and visitors alike. Every artist studio in town will be open and waiting for you.
The visit will take place in Havana and will include a variety of cultural activities and substantive interactions with Cuban cultural experts as well as everyday citizens. All of the program will be designed to maximise quality interaction with the artists and musicians and everyday citizens of the Capital city.
You will be staying at the Hotel Nacional, the Grande Dame of luxury five star hotels in Havana.
