Our Mission
Through the years, the club has
worked on projects as diverse as Historic preservation, Women's Suffrage, AIDS Awareness, Arts and Culture programs and After School Education projects, always keeping the scope of their work within the themes of promoting the family, preserving history, and supporting education and the arts in our community.
Today the Club Members take a leadership role in Historic Preservation. They support the fine and performing arts in a significant way; creating and hosting the only professionally juried arts exhibition in Miami Dade County for High School Students and being founding major sponsors of Shakespeare in the Park Miami.
