During the run of Under the Spell of the Palm Tree: The Rice Collection of Cuban Art at the Harn Museum of Art, University of Florida (July 11, 2023–January 7, 2024), visitors and docents submitted a wide range of thoughtful questions. This initiative fostered dialogue and offered an opportunity to engage more deeply with Cuban art and its histories. The curatorial team reviewed these submissions and welcomed the opportunity to continue the conversation.

This past year has been filled with meaningful events, inspiring projects, and enriching collaborations. It has also been a particularly significant year for our organization, as it marks the tenth anniversary of The Cuban Arts Group.
