Noche de Arte
Noche de Arte serves as “an antidote to the stereotype that artists are isolated figures, eternally tucked away like hermits in the privacy of their studios.” (The Art Story)
Noche de Arte is presented in partnership with collaboARTive, InterContinental Miami Hotel, Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau, and with support from the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs.
