Island SPACE

Our Story 

Founded in 2020, Island SPACE Caribbean Museum is the only pan-Caribbean heritage museum in the world, preserving and celebrating the history, art, and culture of people from the Caribbean and its diaspora. 

From our home in Plantation, Florida, we bridge islands and generations through exhibitions, festivals, and educational programs that connect communities, inspire pride, and build cross-cultural understanding. We exist to ensure that Caribbean voices and legacies remain visible, valued, and vibrant for generations to come.

Our programs and exhibitions reach thousands of people each year, and we are proud to play a role in educating and inspiring the public about Caribbean culture.
