Students who have completed the core Aventura program had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to spend eight days exploring Cuba and interacting with its people during this transformational shift in the nation’s history.
Students engaged in conversations with schoolchildren, artists, guides, taxi drivers, and new business owners to begin to understand the Cuban experience from their first-hand perspectives.
One highlight of the trip, which must be mentioned, was the opportunity to see the famed Buena Vista Social Club’s final live "Adios" performance at the Karl Marx theater in Havana. This was a trip nobody – students or staff – will ever forget.
