HistoryMiami Museum is pleased to announce that the Queen of Salsa, Celia Cruz, is being remembered as part of the museum’s latest addition to the exhibition History & Ourselves. A gift by the Celia Cruz Estate (Celia Cruz Legacy Project), the gold, sequenced dress will be on display from May 15, 2015 to September 13, 2015.
A one-of-a-kind piece designed by Irma Penalver especially for Cruz, this dress was worn on several occasions, including the first-ever Summit of the Americas, which was held in Miami in 1994, and a Kiwanis Carnival party at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables.
