My name is Curt and I have volunteered at the museum for nine years. When I am not at the museum you can find me kayaking or hiking or volunteering elsewhere.  I grew up in New Jersey and moved to Tampa Bay in the late 80s from the Ft. Myers area.  I also do walking tours of Ybor City and work part-time at the Ybor City Visitor Center. What I find so fascinating about the Ybor story is  the diversity among multiple ethnic groups and they all coexisted peacefully.
