Since near 50 years, Kathy Dicquemare (82) has bring together more than 5,000 pre-Columbian artifacts, the majority of which are Taíno pan-Caribbean archaeological objects from Haiti and the Dominican Republic. This is from far the first unique Private Collection on Taíno People up to now.

Since 2009, Kathy has create the KATHY DICQUEMARE FOUNDATION, a non profit organisation. The main purpose of the foundation is to build the first national Taíno Museum to share this collection with the public. The Taíno Museum has a strong core of revival or Taíno legacy materials that include fine photographs, graphics and contemporary works influenced by Taíno heritage and history. It speaks to the power of the original images to note that they have sustained their inspirational force for over five centuries.
