Editorial Review for Historical Museum of Southern Florida – by Juanita Cruz

In Short
This museum delivers a sense of discovery via its traveling exhibits which revolve around the history, cultures, folk life and archaeology of South Florida and the Caribbean. Exhibits, such as "Maps of Cuba" and "Tobacco Art," span prehistoric time to the present. The museum also permanently collects rare archives, photographs, pictures, objects and artifacts relating to native Miccosukee, Seminole, and Tequesta Indians, as well as immigrant communities like Cubans, Haitians, Bahamians and Nicaraguans. Items like a Florida Marlins baseball cap represent the pop culture of the community.
