Photo Creativity Workshop in Cuba City of Havana November 10-15, 2011 Join Yannis in Havana, Cuba, an island city frozen in time.

A cultural experience seen through your lens, the workshop features a lot of interaction with people, walking through Central Havana with its busy neighbourhoods as well as visits to Old Havana.
