Cuban Theater in Miami: 1960-1980 was made possible by a grant from the Knight Foundation in 2011
that supported the digitization of materials in the Cuban Heritage Collection at the University of
Miami Libraries and the creation of this online exhibition.
The Cuban Heritage Collection gives special thanks to photographer Asela
Torres who dedicated many hours to image research in her personal archives to contribute to this project.
