Art, Culture

The Haitian Heritage Museum is proposed to be an approximately 60,000 sf structure that facilitates a diverse series of program functions. The first, and most prominent, will be the Museum component which will feature a variety of spaces that hosts fine Haitian visual arts exhibitions, and an area that accommodates the historic, and contemporary Haitian literary works. Second, a major section that will facilitate community participation is the Artist’s loft component where art students from local as well as international communities will reside and engage in a curriculum rich in Haitian Arts/ Culture. The structure will also feature a 200 seat theater where another dimension of Haiti’s rich artistic culture can be expressed through the medium of film.
