| Celia Cruz by art photographer Alexis Rodriguez-Duarte. The gown, being processed at Society Cleaners is in the collection of the Smithsonian Institution. The photograph is the cover of Presenting Celia Cruz (Clarkson Potter). |
Her voice transcended cultures, #Celia Cruz was a sparkling presence
worldwide. From the Olympia in Paris to Sesame Street to Central Park, her
inimitable style left an imprint with audiences worldwide. A misnomer, “the
Queen of Salsa,” does not apply to a singer of guarachas, son, boleros and
rumbas. A schoolteacher, Ms. Cruz was a feminist icon: before the development
of “feelin’” she proved that women could attract the attention of record buyers
in Hispanic countries. President Bill Clinton awarded Ms. Cruz the National
Medal of the Arts.

@Society Cleaners, an award-winning boutique dry cleaner in Coral
Gables, was selected by the Celia Cruz Foundation to prepare the historical
gown from the Smithsonian Institution that will be used in a South Florida
concert honoring the memory of the legendary singer.
Historical tapestries, gowns from the XVIII century, delicate garments
of religious sculptures from the XIX century and liturgical vestments have been
entrusted to the professional care of Society Cleaners. Celia Cruz’s gown, now in a museum
collection and used in a book cover photograph, is being processed by the Coral
Gables dry cleaner. The image, known
worldwide, was taken at Fairchild Tropical Garden by prominent New York art
photographer Alexis RodrÃguez Duarte (The
New Yorker, Vanity Fair, Vogue).
Our company and its staff feel proud to add the Smithsonian and the
Celia Cruz Foundation to our list of distinguished institutional clients. Thank
you.
