New Partnership to Promote Germany-Cuba Artistic Ties

The Kulturhaus-Havana Partnership (the Havana Culture House) has been founded in this German capital, attended by the group''s founders, comprised of five Cubans, an Italian, and a German. 

The Partnership is aimed at promoting two-way cultural exchange, and expects to bring Cuban and German artists together.

Among the activities the group will organize is the creation of joint cultural activities, to ensure the participation of Cuban and German artists, the island's embassy here reported.

It will be also devoted to the promotion of cultural events in Berlin and Havana.

Andreas Wendland, president of the partnership, said the project is an idea he has held since 1973, when the World Festival of Youth and Students was held in Berlin.
