Event Details

Join us and the Tampa Bay History Museum for a look back in history at Cigar City. By 1885, the cigar industry had transformed Tampa from a sleepy fishing village of 700 people into a booming, multicultural city. How did this industry take root, grow and eventually decline? What effects has it had on modern Tampa?
