Dear Friends,
For the first time, Cuba’s National Symphony Orchestra is touring the U.S. and will be in the NYC area for only one performance, Saturday, October 27. We are buying a block of orchestra seats for friends of the Center — it will be great to have us there together — so if you would like to participate, let us know ASAP so we can send you a ticket (preferably today or tomorrow!). With luck we will have the physical tickets for our opening on October 11. The seats are $40 each (as you can see from the link to Lehman;s web site).
Call us at 212 242 0559 to reserve your seat with us — of course, you can also simply order tickets directly from Lehman.
Most important is that we want us PRESENTE!

As the utopian dream succumbed to dystopian reality, construction was halted and the architects fell out of political favor. The 2011 documentary Unfinished Spaces explores the current state of the schools and follows the exiled architects, who were invited back by Castro to finish their unrealized dream. Revolution of Forms author John Loomis will be joined by Unfinished Spaces co-directors Benjamin Murray and Alysa Nahmias for a conversation on the history of the schools and their rediscovery as visionary architectural masterpieces, now officially recognized by the Cuban government as national treasures.
