Heat up your afternoon with the vibrant pulse of Latin jazz when Club Havana takes over the Coronado Public Library’s Winn Room! Powered by the globe-spanning lineup of Ignacio Arango (Cuba) on bass, Yasser Cruz (Cuba) on timbales, Robert Felcher (New York) on congas, and the brilliant Turiya Mareya (Tijuana) at the piano, the group melds fiery Afro-Cuban rhythms with sleek modern harmonies. A critically acclaimed composer and one of Southern California’s most innovative—and criminally underrated—artists, Mareya will lead the band through her own genre-bending originals alongside beloved Latin-jazz standards, weaving funk, tradition, and avant-garde sparks into an irresistibly dance-worthy set. Admission is free, the vibe is electric, and the music is guaranteed to transport you straight to a sultry Havana night—come catch the groove! Coronado Public Library on Facebook / Instagram
