EXPLORING CUBA'S CULTURAL HERITAGE
November 8-15, 2012
with Hon. Jose A. Cabranes '65 JD
and Professor Kate Stith, Yale Law School
Cuba is a country of picturesque colonial towns and stunning 20th-century architecture, of lush landscapes and an intriguing Afro-Cuban culture. This highly customized 8-day, people-to-people program based in Havana promises to be a rare opportunity for in-depth insight into Cuba, including a number of day excursions into towns outside of the capital. Meet with economists, foreign policy experts, dancers and artists while at the same time being immersed in the rich local culture and rhythms of daily life. The program includes plans for a full day excursion to the western part of Cuba for travelers to experience its jungle-covered summits dropping down limestone cliffs to verdant valleys. Discover the elegance of Cuba’s colonial architecture in Matanzas where a private visit has been arranged to Ediciones Vigia which produces hand-made first edition books on a range of topics.
A second Cuba departure is scheduled for January 12-19, 2013, featuring Yale Professor of Architecture Alan Plattus. Details forthcoming.
Yale has received the appropriate license required by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) for Yale Educational Travel.
