Free Miami Art Week Events | Not Another Art Basel Miami Listicle
Here it is! My annual Miami Art Week Guide, or what I fondly refer to as, “Not Another Art Basel Miami Listicle”! This guide covers Miami Art Week 2024, which is filled with art exhibitions, seminars, interactive programs, and endless inspiration.
Pro Tip: Dress for success but choose stylish, comfortable shoes!
As always, my favorite time of year kicks off with the Art Basel Miami Beach press preview and a celebratory glass of champagne. I’ll be visiting as many fairs and events as my feet can handle. Last year, I walked over 10,000 steps! Read on and follow my Instagram stories for sneak peeks! ~ Lisa @AllegoryPR #TASTE
