‘Road to Freedom’ Exhibition at Haitian Heritage Museum

An exhibition reviewing the history of Haiti’s road to freedom, from slavery to Independence in 1804, through photographs, graphics and text, will open May 4 at the Haitian Heritage Museum in Miami, Florida.

The exhibition, titled “Chimen Libete” (“The Road to Freedom”), is scheduled to run through November. It is a collaboration between the Design District-based Haitian Heritage Museum and the Museum of the Haitian National Pantheon (MUPANAH) in Port-au-Prince.

The museum is located at 4141 N.E. Second Ave. It was founded in 2004 to commemorate Haiti’s bicentennial. The museum is an organization committed to highlighting and preserving Haiti’s culture and heritage globally.

The museum said its goal is to provide a cultural mecca for Little Haiti, where individuals can enjoy Haitian art, historic artifacts, music, films and literary works.
