The Future of History
Each of us knows that one person, whether family member, friend, or mentor that made history come alive with stories, videos, and photographs. They inspired those around them, especially the young ones, with vivid memories of the past. They were an influencer. If history is a valued part of your life story, and you want the story to go on, please consider a legacy gift to HistoryMiami Museum. We love history as much as you do. Call Hilda Masip at 305-375-1618 or email hmasip@historymiami.org to talk about gift planning to preserve all our memories.
