Internationally recognized musical artist receives honorary degree at UNBC
SMITHERS — Singing in both Spanish and English, Alex Cuba is an award-winning international musical artist from Cuba who will receive an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the University of Northern British Columbia during the 2024 Convocation ceremony at the Prince George campus on May 31.
Previously receiving an honorary degree from the Queens University for his impact on the Canadian music world, Cuba says he’s thrilled to receive an honorary degree from UNBC.
“It’s just beautiful to receive this recognition from UNBC.”
However, the musical artist says the road was bumpy, like any other artist who ventures out of their comfort zone.
