Cuba to Key West – A Night with CW C**t & Alejandro Terra w/ Special Guest: Sofia Diaz
AUG 8 at the Key West theater and celebrate the strong Key West Cuban bond, honoring a musical friendship born across borders.

When CW C**t sailed to Cuba aboard the Schooner Wolf with Admiral Finbar Gittelman for Havana’s 500th anniversary, he brought more than music, he brought the gift of a guitar. It’s a tradition he’s kept for years, offering instruments to aspiring musicians around the world. One of those was Alejandro Terra, a Cuban-American artist whose life was forever changed by CW’s generosity.

This friendship embodies the spirit of Flagship WOLF'S Waves of Change PeaceVision Voyages, designed to create positive change through music, art, history, education, and the ancient art of sail.
