Art in Cuba by Connie Tiegel

 On a January 2024 trip to Cuba I met an artist named Yudit Vidal Faife. You are in for a treat when you checkout her website: www.yuditvidal.cult.cu 

Touring her house/studio in Trinidad, Cuba was a dip of the toe into the cultural waters of the embroidery tradition in Cuba.





In addition to making her own art she also teaches community classes to pass on the embroidery tradition to younger women.

In a country as poor as Cuba she has a great need for donated supplies of fabric, thread and needles.

Please contact Yudit Vidal Fiefe at: vidal.yudit@gmail.com if you would like to contribute supplies to her community projects.
