Based in New York City, the Havana Heritage Foundation is dedicated to preserving, protecting, and restoring the rich architectural and cultural heritage of Havana, Cuba.
From 2017 to 2019, the Foundation sponsored the Traveling Grant for Cuban Architects, a professional development initiative that enabled selected Cuban architects to spend one month in the United Kingdom, participating in a specialized post-graduate study program with The Prince’s Foundation in London and Scotland. The program was founded by Chas Miller in 2016 under the auspices of Sir John Soane’s Museum Foundation and was transferred to the Havana Heritage Foundation in 2018. Due to the global travel shutdown in 2020, the program was suspended and remains on hold pending the resumption of nonstop flights between Havana and the United Kingdom.
