A nationally recognized month celebrating the rich culture, art, foods, and traditions of Haiti and its people. It is celebrated during the month of May as an expansion of Haitian Flag Day on May 18th. The flag day is observed with much pomp and splendor even by the diaspora. That’s how it found its way to the United States, a country that is home to a large Haitian population. In Miami, Little Haiti is the cultural heart of the Haitian diaspora and home to all things Caribbean that can be found in galleries, museums, family-owned restaurants, and bookstores.
