Things to do at the Little Haiti Cultural ComplexBy Ashlee Thomas

With more than 100,000 visitors per year, the Little Haiti Cultural Complex is the heartbeat of downtown Little Haiti, giving guests the exciting chance to explore Haitian culture, language and cuisine.

The architectural motif of downtown Little Haiti is distinguished by its vibrant colors and Caribbean design. Pastel blue, soft pink and ocean green buildings are outlined in brightly colored wood, reflecting the sunshine of the Caribbean. The Little Haiti Cultural Complex anchors the rich culture of Haiti for the Haitian diaspora abroad. Getting ready for a trip to explore the culture? Here are six things to do at the Little Haiti Cultural Complex.

Caribbean Market Days Saturdays • 10 a.m.-4 p.m. • Free

Each Saturday, merchants and artisans bring a taste of Haiti and the Caribbean to the Cultural Complex. Stop by Tigeorges Kafé inside the market for some fresh coffee and Haitian paté (a meat-filled morsel of doughy deliciousness). Try fresh salad made with the superfood watercress, fresh tomatoes and pikliz – a cultural staple in Haitian cuisine that spices up any meal. For fresh juices and the most creative gifts, Mimi’s Juice and Gift Shop is right next door. Try a soursop and ginger smoothie or fresh coconut water poured directly from the shell. Fill up on trinkets made by Haitian artisans to take home as gifts or keepsakes. Try something new every Saturday: from Konpa and Haitian folklore dancing to

Haitian rum tasting, the Marketplace is a great way to start Saturday’s cultural excursions.

Sounds of Little Haiti Third Friday of every month 6 p.m. until late • Free

Some of the greats of Haitian music have graced the Cultural Complex Amphitheater stage thanks to Sounds of Little Haiti. These free musical events attract a multigenerational crowd of locals who love Haitian music. Knowledge of Kreyol is not required to attend, but expect to hear lots of the native language at this event. Enjoy food, crafts, drinks and live music by super acts like Wyclef Jean, T. Vice and KLASS, alongside emerging Haitian singers, dancers and poets. Entrance is free, parking is ample. Visitors are encouraged to bring cash for food and vendors.

Delou African Dance & Drum Class Sundays • 3-4 p.m. • $12-$15

For almost two decades, Delou African Dance Company has been serving the community with a deep-rooted commitment to share the beauty and history of West African drum and dance. For those who want to shake up their chakras and sweat to their hearts’ content, Delou’s dance class delivers. Whether beginners or

advanced, participants are in for a treat for their feet. Drummers are welcome to bring their djembes and join the Drum Circle!

Little Haiti Bus & Walking Tours Saturdays • 10 a.m. & 3 p.m. • $15- $50

New on the scene, the Little Haiti Bus & Walking Tours are intimate guided excursions of downtown little Haiti and the culture that influenced the tapestry of the city. The tour begins and ends at the Cultural Complex. Themes range from exploring Haitian art, cuisine, religious practices in voodoo, the Haitian revolution, and the cause/effects of aggressive urban development in a hyperlocal space.

Learn Screen Printing Wednesdays • 6-8 p.m. $12/class or $50/5-week course

For creatives, sign up to learn the skill of screen printing. With guided instruction, participants will learn to create their own art and transfer it to clothing through the screen-print technique. The class caters to a small number of students to ensure quality training and creative attention for each participant. Call to reserve your spot!

From our world-class Miami Art Week to culturally rich neighborhoods like Wynwood and the Miami Design District, Miami has definitely made a name for itself in the art world. Hotels are also placing a major focus on the arts, with many new and historic hotels holding bragging rights to renowned architects, mega-designers and museum-quality works. From permanent art installations to rotating exhibits, art galleries onsite and outstanding music offered nightly, here are the top nine art-centric hotels in Miami that offer a culturally enriching place to lay your head.

Miami BeachKnown as “The Art Hotel,” Sagamore Miami

Beach has a long-standing reputation for its dedication to the arts. It’s one of the few hotels in the world with a year-round art program that changes every season, featuring an extensive mix of art from greats like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein to Miami-based artists. The hotel hosts art talks and offers the unique opportunity to meet artists and has dynamic cultural programming from concerts to lectures. It’s also the only hotel in Miami Beach with a resident art advisor, Sebastien Laboureau, who curates all the art and programming, while making himself available to guests for an informative docent-like tour of the hotel. One of the best times to visit is during Miami Art Week, when the hotel hosts the annual Sagamore Brunch where celebs and art lovers from all over the world converge to clink glasses and chat about the fairs’ best in show.

The iconic Delano South Beach not only boasts groundbreaking designs by famous French designer Philippe Starck, but touts an array of museum-worthy pieces strategically placed throughout the Alice-in-Wonderland-like lobby. Each piece has a specific meaning or history behind it, and incredibly, hasn’t been altered in 25 years. Have a seat on the most photographed piece of furniture at Delano, an oversized pastel-pink couch designed by Starck, or play a round of pool on the vintage Victorian pool table that’s remained in the exact same spot since it was purchased in 1995. Look for the five black-lacquer Moor Chairs designed in 1954 by Piero Fornasetti, that sit around a half-moon table. At first glance, it seems as if the ladies are actually sitting in the lobby, but it’s a visual joke. Also, standing tall in the lobby is Salvador Dali’s Leda Throne, a gold chair dressed like a woman. And, probably the most popular spot on the property for photo shoots, or to sip a cocktail with your feet in the water, is the table and chairs that swim in Delano’s iconic pool that were originally in Le Jardin St. Payl in Paris.

For a fantasy-driven dive into the arts, it doesn’t get more epic than Faena Hotel Miami Beach, developed by Argentine real estate developer Alan Faena. Awe-inspiring pieces are everywhere you look. The most recognizable artwork on the whimsical property is Damien Hirst’s Gone But Not Forgotten, a gilded skeleton of a woolly mammoth majestically displayed in a glass box in the garden — it’s breathtaking to see the turquoise ocean glistening behind it. For more of Hirst’s work, dine at modern-Asian restaurant Pao by Paul Qui to stare at a towering golden unicorn sculpture, Golden Myth, situated in the middle of the restaurant. Wander into the Living Room, to catch two grand chandeliers by Alberto Garutti named Storms — they flicker every time lightning strikes the Pampas in Argentina. For an interactive experience, book an evening at Faena Theater where there is always a rotating lineup of performances from sultry cabaret shows to big-name concerts.

The Betsy South Beach, a beachside oasis in the middle of bustling South Beach, offers

a strong calendar of art and cultural events for guests and locals. Cozy up in the lobby for nightly, free jazz concerts by world-recognized musicians, or ask for a tour to learn more about the rotating exhibits of visual arts and photography throughout the hotel. Something really unique — the hotel boasts Miami’s only Writer’s Room, a working studio space for visiting writers and artists. There are also two permanent, public art displays that debuted when the existing Betsy Hotel merged with the historic Carlton Hotel on Collins Avenue. Venture midway to Española Way at 14th Place and peek into the restored alleyway to see The Betsy Orb, a large orb-shaped structure that exquisitely connects the two historic properties. The Betsy’s Poetry Rail is an installation of poetry — etched into metal by water jets — by 13 poets who have contributed to Miami literature like Langston Hughes, Donald Justice and Muhammad Ali.

Modern stunner W South Beach is home to more than just lively nightlife and trendy restaurants. The hotel also houses a multi-million-dollar contemporary art collection with pieces by iconic artists like Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Julian Schnabel and more. The W’s support for the local arts also extends

across the street to its neighbor, The Bass, Miami Beach’s contemporary art museum, with an exclusive partnership that includes special amenities like an upscale picnic at the Bass’ adjacent sculpture garden. Hotel guests have the chance to experience VIP access to Creativity Center programs for all ages, exhibition openings, guided tours and more.

Luxury and art go hand-in-hand at The Setai, Miami Beach, a zen-hotel rich in architectural history. The sleek hotel is housed in a restored 1936 landmark building within the historic Art Deco District, designed by renowned architect Henry Hohauser, and oozes an Art Deco-Asian style. If one design element expresses the concept of Art Deco fusion, it would be the lobby’s grey antique bricks that were transported from Shanghai, which at one time had the largest array of Art Deco buildings in the world. Guests will be wowed by original paintings by Shanghai artist Christian de Laubadère, who paints on paper and canvas using lead pencils, smoke and charcoal as well as printed and embroidered fabric selected from China and France. The hotel also puts an emphasis on the art of music

at Jaya’s elaborate Sunday Jazz Brunch, where guests can listen to a live jazz band while they roam the decadent seafood, Asian and dessert stations and sip Champagne.

At Loews Miami Beach Hotel, a hotel tower was designed as an homage to Art Deco with a stunning cupola that’s now synonymous with South Beach. A recent $50-million revamp meant adding a curated collection of permanent art pieces that range from murals to sculptures and even designer headboards in rooms. The works of Sarah Raskey, a Chicago-based visual artist, and Derek Gores, a Melbourne, Florida artist known for collage-art, are woven throughout the hotel. The first thing guests will notice is Raskey’s sparkling art piece behind the reception desk called Stardust, comprised of minerals, precious stones, crystals, geodes and more. It’s like a fabulous piece of earthy jewelry on the wall. You’ll also find her work in the artfully designed carpeting in guestroom hallways and the guestroom headboards and murals, which are aptly called Halo. Gores, who recycles fashion magazines, labels and digital materials to create larger-than-life collage

works, features a series of playful works showing off the living beauty of the figure and the aesthetics of fashion by Splash boutique and Bar Collins. For gallery-like collections, head to the second and third floor meeting spaces for more than 40 pieces of multi-medium works showcasing many local Florida artists. If music is your art of choice, spend an evening at Bar Collins, the lobby restaurant and lounge, for live music every Friday through Sunday.

Expect a rotating mix of local musicians who belt out everything from Latin tunes to playing moving music on an electric violin and DJs pumping out dance music.

Downtown Miami/BrickellIn Downtown Miami, Kimpton EPIC Miami

has bragging rights to its own international art gallery on property. Located directly outside the front doors is Avant Gallery, where art lovers can immerse themselves in a contemporary world of sculptures, paintings and photography. Expect to experience an eclectic group of artists including Alejandro Vigilante, Alec Monopoly, Gavin Rain, Nathan Sawaya, and Guy Le Baube. The gallery was founded in Miami Beach in 2007, and while it operates out of four locations (two in Miami), this Downtown location is their flagship and includes stunning LaMuse Café, where you can gather for artfully inspired dishes along with coffee and teas.

Also in the heart of Miami’s Brickell Financial District, boutique Hampton Inn & Suites Brickell will surprise guests with its exquisite collection of original art by 12 different artists and a small art gallery at the ground level. See one of Jeffrey Zachmann’s one-of-a-kind sculptural machines, a towering flower sculpture by Emilio Robba, and thought-provoking paintings by Gregory Scott and Deborah Starbuck. Roam the sixth floor to gaze at Art Deco photographs and make a stop on each floor where inspiring murals make a statement at the elevator landing areas.

All these places are sure to offer an enriching stay while in Miami, or even replace a day at the museum for locals.

What started as a handful of artistic spaces only a decade ago has exploded into more than 30 thriving arts and culture organizations and more than 60 artist studios in Downtown Miami alone. And the community momentum shows no signs of slowing down.

Art is everywhere in Miami—from the walls that line the Miami Riverwalk to the impressive sculpture Slide Mantra by Isamu Noguchi standing in Bayfront Park. Downtown Miami is home to a wide range of art in unexpected places, including pedestrian walkways, inside hotels and even showcased in several other public places.

Let’s take a closer look at the dynamic offerings Downtown Miami has in the form of unique art and cultural experiences.

housed in a state-of-the-art campus designed by world-renowned architects Herzog & de Meuron, Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) features 200,000 sprawling square feet of artistic wonder. It’s a playground for adults and kids alike. Think experiential art, up-close-

At the Miami Beach Convention Center, new meaning has been given to the concept of public art. While Miami art in public places isn’t exactly unheard of – after all, the community has long been known as a premier destination for art lovers from around the world – the dynamic reimagining of the Convention Center is raising the city to a new level of art appreciation.

A Multi-Million Dollar Investment in Miami’s Public Art

As nearly any Miami Beach local will tell you, the city doesn’t settle for mediocre, so it makes sense that the Convention Center’s recent redesign clocks in as the largest single percent-for-art purchase in American history. More than $600 million was allocated for the full renovation, including $7.4 million for the creation of a series of public artworks.

The community has long placed significant value on local arts and culture, demonstrated by the 1984 founding of the Art in Public Places (AiPP) program. This program sets aside 1.5 percent of all capital costs stemming from public and joint private-public projects, establishing a fund specifically for the purchasing and commissioning of art. However, while the AiPP program has been a long-standing force in maintaining Miami Beach’s commitment to the arts, the project at the Convention Center was unlike anything they’d done before.

While most public art pieces are commissioned piecemeal, the project purchased several pieces with the goal of achieving a uniting theme. This provided the unique opportunity for the committee to shape the project according to a specific vision, with a final result that provides viewers a one-of-a-kind visual journey.

A Collection of Public Art Pieces by World-Renowned Artists

When the Art in Public Places committee called for artist submissions, they were flooded by hundreds of applicants from all over the world. For four years, they carefully sorted through an incredible assortment of talented artists, searching for those with a style, medium and vision that melded with the

plans for the Convention Center. The focus was on selecting a series of pieces and artists that could flow as one, playing off one another as well as the building in a coherent, creative way.

From several hundred applicants, the committee selected six artists to join in the efforts for conceptualizing and creating public art at the Miami Beach Convention Center. The artists were involved in more than just the creation of the artworks; they also contributed to the overall design of the spaces for each piece.

In addition to the several public art pieces, the Convention Center building itself was recreated with considerable intention. The redesign transformed the building into a symbol of Miami Beach’s commitment to the environment, earning silver LEED certification and recycling nearly 100 percent of material waste during the construction process. Energy consumption was cut by 20 percent, while a rainwater collection system now provides a sustainable source of water. The wave-like glass on the building’s exterior evokes images of the vibrant blue ocean waters, representing the community’s resilience and focus on sustainability.

Six Public Artworks Connected by a Single Vision

The six artists selected to participate in the Miami Beach Convention Center’s redesign come from all over the world, contributing their unique cultures, perspectives and styles to the public art collection.

About Sand by German artist Franz Ackermann is located on the building’s southeast exterior corner, featuring bright colors and various abstracted forms to represent the artist’s interpretations of daily life, tourism, and commerce in Miami Beach.

Atlantis by English artist Ellen Harvey is located in the building’s grand lobby ballroom and combines mouth-blown glass, ceramic and paint in a representation of the bodies of water that join Miami Beach with the larger ecosystems of Florida.

Bent Pool by Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset is a study in contemporary sculpture art, planned for installation at the Convention Center Park in late 2019.

Humanoids by Joep van Lieshout is a series of sculptural, abstract figures placed throughout Collins Canal Park.

Located World, Miami Beach is in the Convention Center’s west lobby, and is part of a larger series by artist Joseph Kosuth.

Morris Lapidus by Sarah Morris is installed on the center’s northeast and grand staircase exterior walls, where it explores a variety of visual concepts through unique mediums and forms.

Experience the Newly Reimagined Miami Beach Convention Center

Miami Beach has long been a year-round arts destination, offering visitors and locals alike a wide variety of opportunities to experience diverse artworks from both established and emerging artists. Now, the redesigned Miami Beach Convention Center has secured its place among the community’s must-see art highlights, adding to the already extensive collection of Miami Beach public art.

Plan your visit to the Miami Beach Convention Center for your up-close experience with artwork by some of today’s best internationally recognized artists.
