Cuba: The Natural Beauty

The Marco Island Historical Society (MIHS) presents Cuba: The Natural Beauty, a photography exhibit by world-renowned photographer Clyde Butcher, at the Marco Island Historical Museum (MIHM) January 24 to April 29, 2023. The exhibit is free and open to the public.

As official photographer for the United Nations’ Conference for the Sustainable Habitat of the Mountain held in Cuba in 2002, Butcher went on three expeditions, accessing places not seen by visitors for over 50 years and photographing Cuba’s wondrous beauty. His powerful black and white photographs explore his intense and personal bond with the environment; while capturing and revealing the seductive beauty, subtle grandeur and majesty of Cuba’s diverse island and its people. 

The exhibit is part of the 2023 ¡ARTE VIVA! festival, a celebration of Hispanic arts and culture on Florida’s Paradise Coast. For information, visit arte-viva.com. 

The Marco Island Historical Museum is located at 180 S. Heathwood Drive. Open Tuesday through Saturday, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Admission is free. For information, call 239.389.6447 or visit www.theMIHS.org.
