Last Summer I was the recipient of a grant from Lawrence University that allowed me to travel to Cuba for 30 days! I spent time in the cities of Havana and Matanzas, studying Afro-Cuban music and culture and meeting so many new friends and mentors.
For my Senior Honors Project I wrote a thesis and presented a lecture recital that have now been published! Click on the link to download my paper and watch the recital for yourself if you’re interested:

I am also including some pictures I took during my trip. I hope to be back on the island soon.
