Artcards Miami Weekly Update

This past Saturday's Gallery Walk in Wynwood proved to be another successful art gathering. If you couldn't make any of the openings, check out our Ongoing Shows list.

This week is packed full of exciting events from North Broward down to South Dade. Fort Lauderdale's downtown arts district will be hosting its first annual art fair called "Art Fallout." Many local galleries, studios and The Museum of Art/Fort Lauderdale will be participating on the 16th from 5-8pm. There will be free bus transportation also. If you can make it out this Saturday, do-not-miss-this!

Get ready to head down to FIU's Frost Art Museum this Wednesday during their monthly sponsored, "Target Wednesday After Hours." This event is designed for social networking [in the flesh of course], artist meet & greets plus interacting with all the genres of art that Frost offers during their exhibitions. Speaking of, Frost will be debuting four new exhibits on Wednesday from 6-9pm with free admission.

Galleries such as Accent Alternative in Coral Gables, announces a new Art Walk in the Bird Road Arts District this Saturday. The main hub is around Bird Road and SW 75th Ave.

*Check back soon with us for continuous updates! In the meanwhile, enjoy your week ahead.

Cheers,
The Artcards Team
