Join us in celebrating the City of Miami’s unique Cuban-American and Latinx culture with the BBC World Service radio show: “The Arts Hour on Tour.” Host Nikki Bedi takes the stage at The Koubek Centre, Miami Dade College, with a live audience, performances, stories of living at the heart of the Cuban Diaspora, and what exactly makes Miami’s arts scene so vibrant and unique. Featuring music performances from Afro-Cuban funk sensation Cimafunk, and “Princess of Son” singer Leslie Cartaya. Writer Vanessa Garcia will share details about her latest play “Amparo,” which gave theatres across Miami this year a taste of pre and post-Revolutionary Cuba. Renowned visual artist Sandra Ramos will describe her experiences in working between Miami and Havana, and stand-up comedian Milton Granadillo will have you laughing to close the evening.

In partnership with WLRN.

Admission is free and on a first-come-first-served basis. Must RSVP.
