Museum of Graffiti
Celebrating its one year anniversary during Art Week, the Museum of Graffiti will be exhibiting artwork that honors the impact street art has had in the evolution of Miami’s art scene. Located in Wynwood, home to South Florida’s largest collection of street art, the Museum of Graffiti will be presenting two new exhibitions in the Museum’s gallery space. Visitors to the Museum will also be able to experience several updates to its permanent Style Masters exhibition, including the addition of a comprehensive display that highlights the impact of female graffiti artists on the movement. Events this week include the opening of Eye Candy, featuring new work by New York City graffiti pioneer, LA2 (Angel Ortiz; pictured above) (Dec. 4) and an outdoor screening of Why the Spray documentary (Dec. 5).

Studios on the Mile
Throughout December
Available spaces along Coral Gables’ iconic Miracle Mile have been converted into artist studios, just as Miami Art Week approaches. With the City of Coral Gables and Terranova’s support, the Coral Gables Business Improvement District has worked to transform seven retail spots into studios, where 21 local artists will create, display and sell their art to the public through the end of December. Curated by Carol Damian as part of the Gables Art CollectiveStudios on the Mile is open to the public. Visitors are welcome to see these local artists at work and browse their masterpieces while they stroll through one of Miami’s most popular thoroughfares. Plus, be on the lookout for newly commissioned murals showcasing inspiring messages and drawing visitors to photograph and pose with the temporary installations.
