Miami Arts, Culture & Heritage Months Returns - Celebrate The Cultural Richness Of Greater Miami And Miami Beach Culture

The arts and culture scene in Greater Miami & Miami Beach has experienced transformative growth, catalyzed by the introduction of Art Basel Miami Beach in 2002. Each neighborhood – whether the vibrant Miami Design District, the historically rich Opa-locka, or the spirited streets of Little Havana – has nurtured distinct and lively communities centered around art and cultural heritage. These vibrant neighborhoods are the heart of Greater Miami & Miami Beach’s art scene, contributing significantly to the local economy with an impressive $2.1 Billion in economic activity and supporting over 31,500 local jobs.
