ONLINE BOOKING CLOSED
31st July 2009 at 18:00 BST
A photography exhibition by Eleanor Marriott marking 50 years since the Cuban Revolution
In 2009 Eleanor Marriott travelled around Cuba photographing the island in order to capture the spirit of the place 50th years after its revolution. She discovered that Cuba is much more than a land of cigars and classic cars. It is a place of intense patronage towards the revolutionaries, of crumbling colonial buildings, of music coming from houses, plazas, cafes and bars; of men playing dominoes in the streets; children playing baseball with plastic bottle caps and sticks of wood; people getting by in spite of food, water and electricity shortages.

Due to public demand, the exhibition has been extended until 31 July
Opening times: 2pm - 6pm
Venue: Canning House Library
Free entrance
