An excellent concise museum, beautifully designed. This is our second exhibit, with the Celia Cruz being the first and will return again...have recommended the museum to various friends.

This place was amazing to experience and the staff had great customer service. If you want to learn more about Cuban culture make sure you check this place out.

No pictures from inside. Why you may ask? Because it is not ever open during its "hours of operations ". Not open weekdays or weekends when they are suppose to function. I try called and get a full mailbox. Its almost a front of some sort. Ridiculous! Call first before going.

Was expecting a more diverse exhibit. The entire museum was focused on Celia Cruz. Understand she was influential but have to imagine there were more folks in the Cuban exile community. Even a small permanent exhibit about the overall community would have been nice. Was hoping to get a broader perspective about the diaspora and ended up in a (very nice) niche music hall of fame.

The American Museum of the Cuban Diaspora is a highly recommended place if you are looking for an approach to the Cuba that beats in the US and in the world. You will always find exhibitions of Cuban artists who have contributed to spreading their culture internationally. In addition to that it is an experience to know and understand the two Cubas in many of its aspects. The museum is located in a very convenient place and in a very beautiful building worth admiring.

I loved the experience. Learned so much about my Cuban history. Learned a lot about the Pedro Pan Operation

The workers/volunteers here were very friendly and welcoming. If you're from out of town, this place is perfect to help you understand more about the history and culture of Miami.

There's so much history, you gain such an appreciation for the Cuban people and all the struggles they're been through.

A must to any tourist that visits the magic city to get the real perspective of the horrors of the communist dictatorship in Cuba and the Cuban diaspora. Cuba must be free.

I absolutely LOVE this museum. It captures the Cuban spirit and you’ll feel the very soul of Cuban culture. I visited when the play, “Las Paredes Oyen” premiered there. It was more than just a play. Life changing and unforgettable experience. The actors were phenomenal. The entire performance was remarkable. They got a standing ovation! This place and the play are both a must see for all Cubans and non-Cubans alike.

They have a great building with room to improve on, but the exhibition was rather small and limited to Celia Cruz. I feel like there could have been more permanent exhibits discussing the diaspora.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful experience: Yesterday, June 26, I had the opportunity to live one of my most beautiful experiences with the Cuban exile in a great concert with Marisella Verena. As a Colombian, I have linked with this community and its cause, because I see very critical moments in Colombian national politics whose peace process was endorsed to Castroism and today we live a delirious moment to stabilize our democracy. My congratulations to the director Marcell Felipe, because his effort has been very fortuitous in his short traginar for the salvation of this beautiful venue, Hispanic pride and wonderful representation of the greatness of the Cuban exile in all its fields (political, economic and cultural) . As a hotelier, and a resident of the Little Havana, I feel a great commitment to our roots and how beautiful it would be to turn it into a tourist attraction for our visitors. Great thanks to America TV, because they have been a great engine in this cause, as well as journalists who promote this purpose with Juan Manuel Cao and Pedro Sevcec. I have always believed that to understand the Bible, we must read the Genesis, as to know our bad delirious de Castro in Latin America, we must understand the Cuban reality in all its expression. Long live Cuba! (Original) Maravillosa Experiencia: Ayer 26 del Junio tuve la oportunidad de vivir una de mis mas bellas experciencias con el exilio Cubano en un fenomenal concierrto con Marisella Verena. Como Colombiano , me he vinculado con esta comunidad y su causa, pues veo momentos muy criticos en la politica nacional Colombiana cuyo proceso de paz fue endosado al castrismo y hoy por hoy vivimos un momento delirante por estabilizar nuestra democracia. Mis felicitaciones al director Marcell Felipe, pues su esfuerzo has sido muy fortuito en su corto traginar por la salvacion de este bello recinto, orgullo hispano y maravillosa representacion de lo grande que es el exilio Cubano en todos sus campos (politico , economico y cultural). Como hotelero , y residente de la Pequena Havana, siento un gran compromiso por nuestras raices y que hermoso seria convertirlo en un atractivo turistico a nuestros visitantes. Gran agradecimiento a America TV, pues ellos han sido un gran motor en esta causa, al igual que a periodistas que impulsan este proposito com Juan Manuel Cao y Pedro Sevcec. Siempre he creido que para entender la Biblia, hay que leer el Genesis, como para conocer nuestros malos delirious de castrismo en lationoamerica, hay que entender la realidad cubana en toda su expression. Viva Cuba libre!!

Interesting museum. Leans very heavily towards only giving one perspective and I would have appreciated a more full and nuanced history of the Cuban diaspora, but it was still very informative and a good trip.

Learned so much about the Cuban diaspora and the Peter (Pedro) Pan flights. Also, the documentary about the Cuban Freedom fighters involved in the "Bay of Pigs" known as Battalion 2506, was amazingly informative. Cuban Americans can be proud of the dignity these heros comported themselves. Great exhibit a must for all Freedom loving people!

They had a wonderful exhibit of Cuban architects. It's still there. I thought the exhibit was excellent, but they left out a few renown architects.

A vey nice place. Unfortunately we were there when they were under transition and only had an art display of a Cuban artist. It was very good and the employees were welcoming. They asked us to register so they can send us announcements of their displays. They do have a book and gift shop.

Nice place.

The museum is very well put together. It's an exhibition with actual footage of the 50s and 60s with an impressive presentation documenting Cuban history and culture. The staff were extremely friendly. Definitely worth a visit.

The Fernando Prieto exhibition was worthy. The museum is still under construction. It is heavy in images and texts.

Good place for corporate events. And Private too.. With the good music of DJ From the stars 🌟 DJ Mani

Very nice museum

Very organized !!!

The entire staff went above and beyond to accommodate my family and I during a recent visit to the museum. The facility is very beautiful and educational. Will be back for another visit!

As a Cuban American, I’m very proud to see the former rich Cuban history exhibited here as well as hearing various personal stories from some of the people who left Cuba on Operation Peter Pan. Our group was privileged to have Ms. Valdivia as our tour guide. Excellent overall - definitely a must visit for any Cuban American who wants to get a better appreciation of their heritage.

My family members were not Pedro Pan (Father was a Balsero) but it was nice to see history and stories of those who lived to tell the tale of what happened those few years. The items are donated from Pedro Pan children so it allows you to get a sense of just how young they all were when they were forced to grow up.

Life changing and unforgettable experience. The actors were phenomenal. The entire performance was remarkable. They got a standing ovation! This place and the play are both a must see for all Cubans and non-Cubans alike.

Nice explanation of peter pan history very clean and very courteous people

An excellent way to gain first hand cultural experience about a situation of great significance to our country today. Everyone in the museum was knowledgeable and helpful. They spent lots of time explaining the history that led to the exodus of more than 14,000 overprotected children out of the ‘safety’ of their homes into the unknown. Most of those children (many of them grandparents now) know now the heartbreaking sacrifice their parents made to give them a chance at freedom. To them, their children and grandchildren…. A must see!

Wonderful establishment learned so much and had an awesome tour guide! Thank you for a great experience

A sensitive drama in a very dramatic museum. It was my honor to be there.

Always a welcoming atmosphere!!! A great place to preserve the cuban exile heritage!!!

Awesome please to visit to know more about different aspects of Cuban Culture and History. Recently visited during the Pedro Pan exhibit and it was excellent. Really helped to have the tour as the gentleman explained everything in great detail and he has been part of Pedro Pan. That definitely helped really appreciate all the details even more.

Beautiful display of artwork and ample spaces for activities. Beautiful view from the rooftop.

I went to the museum and was impressed. It was a great experience full of history and culture. I liked how the museum arranged the displays and gave plenty of information about every exhibit.

Beautiful museum. Well curated exhibition on the Cuban Diaspora. If you want to know more about the history of the Cuban Revolution and its consequences (no propaganda, just facts), this is the right place.

Very nice museum and event venue.

Quite a unique museum, great tour and an hour an half documentary primarily about the 14000 children that fled Cuba. It's a small museum but worth a visit to learn the history of the Cuban diaspora.

Excellent experience, The totally True Story of the Pedro Pan kids, The Communist Regime forced the Parents of these kids to take Action, thanksBe to God that most of them Reunited in the Good all USA AND THE REST IS History Thank You to Juan Pujol for his knowledge and experience in explaining so eloquently the Pedro Pan True Story.

Very disappointed, website doesn't show that's it closed. Also the exhibition of Pedro Pan, was removed at the end of March, but the front of the museum still has it.

Excellent. Friendly and Knowledgeable Staff. Great Exhibitions. 🇺🇸🇨🇺🗽

Its a nice garden to take kids, or spend a morning with a friend. It's hot during summer, spring and late fall is the best time to visit. Can't say anything bad, but Huntington and LA arboretum beat this place.

The Celia Cruz exhibit was amazing!

nice place ti learn from Cuban history

What we saw was good, but between us buying tickets and spending 10 minutes there, they closed the museum during normal hours. Don't sell us tickets and then close everything.

Try no to miss the Celia Cruz's exhibit. Very well put together and very welcoming staff.

What a shame that this marvelous building houses such a colorless collection. This is what happens when art is politicized and an institution only represents what is comfortable to a minority of its constituency. A tragedy that the Cuban exile community simply won’t unite and that exhibitions have been relegated to oversimplifications and representations of things long past.

First time here and wow loved it! Cozy nice cultural

Nice layout, lighting and spaces... parking is also right next to the building.

Just called the museum after 3 weeks since the Celia Cruz documentary was not playing due to technical issues, today they tell me that there are no videos playing. The person who answered the phone was extremely rude and sarcastic and totally unprofessional! I hate to give it this rating because it is truly an excellent exhibition but the staff is the exact opposite and should be ashamed to be representing such a legacy

(Translated by Google) I was not there... (Original) No estuve alli...

I came to this museum to see the Celia Cruz exhibition ‘Forever Celia’. It’s a small place and the Celia stuff takes everything they have. However, I found everything great. Very well arranged. Kudos to the executor for the care of detail and all the information he could gather. You can spend hours listening to every audio/video file, reading or just being amazed with all the things that belonged to that great woman. There’s a small room with an exhibit from a photographer that worked with Celia for several years and the quotes are very moving. I you loved the music and life of Celia Cruz, this is a must see. Everything else on this museum was very neat but I found disappointing that I had to run to an ATM because they only took cash for the admission. Also, I thought that this museum was included in the ‘Museums on Us’ from Bank of America but the receptionist told us otherwise.

Excellent a new format of Cuban art

About time we have a place to showcase our journey in this hospitable country! It's a start. The Celia Cruz exhibit was wonderful. Looking forward to future exhibitions

Went to see Celia Cruz exhibit

Loved Celia Forever exhibition!

Amazing

Not bad

They have the Celia Cruz exhibit on until September 30th 2019. My mom really enjoyed it. If your mom was growing up in that era then I highly recommend you take her there. It will be worth it.

(Translated by Google) Excellent tribute to Celia Cruz through this exhibition. Congratulations (Original) Excelente homenaje a Celia Cruz a través de esta exposición. Felicitaciones

(Translated by Google) A fantastic experience I relived the pleasant memories of my country through the presentations of the museum. Mainly the exhibition of our dear and never forgotten Celia Cruz. It was very exciting to be so close to the dresses, clothes, awards, notes and their wigs with which we saw her. Congratulations and please continue on your mission to keep our "CUBANISM" alive ...... THANK YOU FOR YOUR DEDICATION !!! (Original) Una experiencia fantástica. Revivi los recuerdos gratos de mi patria atreves de las presentaciones de el museo. Principalmente la exhibición de nuestra querida y nunca olvidada Celia Cruz.

Felicidades y por favor continúen en su misión de mantener vivo a nuestro " CUBANISMO " ...... GRACIAS POR SU DEDICACIÓN !!!

(Translated by Google) The friendly receptionist and the design of the building were good, but the content to watch is rather lacking (I think it's being added). The Cuban national singer Celia Cruz is now in full swing. No matter where you go, you can see her face on the wall, on the signboard, or even on the menu. (Original) 친절한 리셉셔니스트, 건물의 디자인 모두 좋았으나 관람할 컨텐츠는 다소 부족한 편이다(현재 추가 중인 것 같다). 지금은 쿠바의 국민가수 Celia Cruz전이 진행되고 있다. Calle ocho의 어느 가게를 가더라도 벽, 간판, 하다못해 메뉴에서도 그녀의 얼굴을 볼 수 있으니 대체 이사람이 누군지 궁금하다면 방문해 봐도 좋겠다.

Represent my culture my Cuban roots and a legend.

(Translated by Google) It is an emblematic institution where exhibitions are presented, conferences are given around the struggle of the island's people and the entire Cuban exile. Beautiful building and very well located. (Original) Es una emblemática institución en la que se presentan exposiciones, se dan conferencias en torno a la lucha del pueblo de la isla y de todo el exilio cubano.
