For the past six years, Island SPACE Caribbean Museum has been building something extraordinary in South Florida: a dedicated place where the combined histories and cultures of the Caribbean can be explored.
Island SPACE is the world’s only pan-Caribbean heritage museum. Last year, more than 12,000 people walked through our doors and more than 20,000 people engaged with Island SPACE through our on-site and community-based programs.
Visitors learn. Artists exhibit. Communities gather. Ideas are exchanged.
“Our kids were taught some valuable lessons and got introduced to artifacts that told the story of our heritage.”
— Google Reviewer Natz N, 5 stars
We are raising $30,000 to help Island SPACE Caribbean Museum enter 2027 ready to welcome more people, expand its reach and strengthen the educational and community programming it provides across South Florida.
Help us reach the next child, welcome the next family, document the next story and build the institution this community deserves.
Because no other institution in South Florida does the work we do.
Your gift helps make sure that:
• South Florida continues to have a museum home devoted to pan-Caribbean history and culture.
• People of all backgrounds can discover how deeply the Caribbean has influenced South Florida and the world.
• Artists, scholars and community members have a place to share ideas, culture and creativity.
• Families discover stories from their own histories that may have been lost to time.
• The museum can reach more people.
• $25 introduces one child to their heritage through a museum field trip experience.
• $100 supports outreach to schools, families and community groups.
• $1,000 helps underwrite a public cultural conversation or community workshop.
• $5,000 supports a four-month exhibition showcasing Caribbean artists.
• $25,000 provides substantial support for the museum’s operations, programs and community work.
Island SPACE Caribbean Museum exists to safeguard the histories, traditions, and spirit of the Caribbean — bridging generations, uplifting our creatives, and ensuring that our shared heritage continues to inspire, educate and unite people around the world.
Here in South Florida, where one in four residents was born in the Caribbean, our work preserves the living heartbeat of our community.
Your gift keeps the Caribbean story alive — every island, every voice and every generation.
Together, we are building the world’s home for Caribbean culture — one that honors our past, empowers our present and secures our future.
