Each quarter we update our Temporary Exhibit Room with a new Featured Exhibit, so be sure to check back with us frequently.
CURRENT FEATURED EXHIBIT
In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, our new featured exhibit is The Cuba Connection: Art from Baracoa, Cuba, a juried art exhibit featuring reproductions of contemporary Cuban artworks.
What is the connection between Cuba and Fernandina? José Martí, Cuban journalist, poet, and revolutionary, stayed in Fernandina in the 1890s to develop the Fernandina Plan, a plot to send men and arms to Cuba to fight for independence. Dr. Berta Arias will speak about this unique history at the 3rd on 3rd lecture as part of the exhibit grand opening on September 17, 2021 at 6:00 pm.
Check out the livestream of the lecture on September 17 at 6:00 pm on our Twitch channel.
Check out the replay of the lecture after the opening on our YouTube channel.
