All ages are encouraged to attend a special presentation hosted by the City of Pembroke Pines entitled "Across the Florida Straits to Cuba," a living history of the buildings left behind. This presentation, a Florida Humanities' Florida Talks Program, is by award-winning Architect Mario Cartaya. It will be held on Wednesday, October 9, 2024 at 6:30 pm at the Charles F. Dodge City Center, located at 601 City Center Way.
Presentation Summary: Cuba is a historical laboratory of buildings, streets, and artifacts that have been mostly untouched since 1960-allowing visitors to transport themselves into a time and space that has not evolved into modern times. In this historical presentation, Mario Cartaya retraces and recalls six decades of friendly and cooperative Cuban-American relations and history as told by the buildings left behind.
