South Florida’s favorite holiday tradition is back! Mouse King: The Untold Story of The Nutcracker, the family-favorite musical created by Sesame Street veteran Noel MacNeal and award-winning composer Jim Camacho, returns to the Mandelstam Theater this December with an all-new edition of the magically reimagined Nutcracker story… told from the other side of the battle.
Now in its twelfth year, “Mouse King” invites audiences to step into a whimsical world where the mice take center stage and the Nutcracker isn’t quite the hero he’s been made out to be. Packed with heart, humor, and holiday wonder, the musical brings together a vibrant cast of young Miami performers, spectacular puppetry, and show-stopping special effects for an unforgettable seasonal tradition.

“Twelve years ago, Noel MacNeal shared an idea, and I nudged him to take it from page to stage. We met in a coffee shop to dream up Mouse King, and somehow that little spark has become a South Florida holiday tradition,” says composer Jim Camacho. “Thanks to our incredible kids, professional actors and puppeteers, and the extraordinary puppets crafted by James Wojtal of Henson and Sesame Street, the spirit of Christmas fills the Mandelstam Theater every year.”

Featuring puppets crafted by master puppeteer James Wojtal Jr. – whose work has appeared on Saturday Night Live, The Today Show, and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver – the production also welcomes guest artists from New York City. Together, they bring MacNeal’s imaginative retelling to life in a way that captivates first-timers and returning families alike.

With a one-hour runtime and no intermission, “Mouse King” is designed for audiences of all ages (minimum age 3). The production remains one of Miami’s most cherished seasonal outings, drawing families back year after year to celebrate the magic of storytelling, community, and Chrismouse cheer.

2025 PERFORMANCE DATES
Friday, December 12 – 7 PM
Saturday, December 13 – 12 PM & 7 PM
Sunday, December 14 – 12 PM

All children, regardless of age, require a ticket. Minimum age is 3 years.

ABOUT “MOUSE KING”
A holiday musical for the whole family, “Mouse King” retells the classic Nutcracker story from the perspective of the mice – complete with enchanting music, handcrafted puppets, and a cast of talented young performers from across the Miami community. Created by acclaimed puppeteer Noel MacNeal (The Muppets, Bear in the Big Blue House, Sesame Street) and award-winning composer Jim Camacho, the musical has become a cherished South Florida tradition celebrating its twelfth year in 2025.

In collaboration with Casa Obsidiana and Daniel Ashley Co., this exclusive dinner at the Four Seasons Miami invites guests to explore the intersection of craftsmanship and creativity.

Visionary host and Wine Enthusiast’s Person of the Year, Jean-Charles Boisset of JCB Collection, joins Casa Obsidiana co-founder and a member of one of the oldest families in tequila, Roberto Beckmann, to curate an unforgettable multi-course pairing experience. Together, they unite the worlds of wine and tequila — transforming each sip into a work of art. This rare collaboration celebrates heritage, craftsmanship, and the pursuit of perfection from vine to agave. Each course reveals a dialogue between liquid artistry and material beauty where Casa Obsidiana’s sculptural bottles stand as masterpieces of form and symbolism, and Daniel Ashley Co.’s fine fabrics add a tactile dimension of texture and elegance.

A feast for the senses and the soul, this evening is more than a dinner—it’s an ode to artistry in all its forms, reflecting the spirit of Miami Art Week itself: bold, inspired, and unforgettable.

Mostly Baroque presents Classical Music Performance Festival 2/26/26

Mostly Baroque presents Classical Music Performance Festival
Thursday, 02/26/2026-, 07:00 pm-09:00 pm
Adrienne Arsht Center
1300 Biscayne Blvd.,
Miami, Florida, 33132
Website
Cost: $70.20

Mostly Baroque presents an intimate three-concert series from February 26 – March 1, 2026 in Carnival Studio Theater, making its debut during the Adrienne Arsht Center’s 20th anniversary season. The South Florida-based instrumental ensemble is dedicated to historically informed vocal concerts and instrumental performances of the music of Bach, Handel, Telemann and Vivaldi, among other Baroque composers.

A Baroque orchestra is more intimate in both size and sound than a modern symphonic orchestra, featuring violins, violas, celli, double bass, harpsichord, flute, oboe, and trumpet. The musicians perform on period instruments or faithful reproductions, using Baroque bows that produce a warmer, softer and more nuanced tone than modern orchestral ones. This historically informed approach allows audiences to experience the music much as it would have been heard in the 18th century – with clarity, balance, and a natural expressiveness that highlights the beauty and detail of the compositions.

Mostly Baroque concert series schedule:

Thursday, February 26, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. – The festival opens with J.S. Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos Nos. 2, 3 and 4, and a performance of GP Telemann’s Don Quichotte suite. (Running time: 120 minutes.)
Friday, February 27, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. – Rising bass-baritone concert artist and composer Johan Hartman will perform Gerald Finzi’s Let Us Garlands Bring (a setting of five Shakespeare songs), along with the Don Quixote songs of Jacques Ibert (written for the 1933 film) – performing famous works in English, French, German and Italian. The program will also feature several original song cycles from Johan Hartman’s debut EP album, Blood and the Moon, recently released on Constitution Records. (Running time: 60 minutes.)
Sunday, March 1, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. – The festival concludes with the ensemble’s critically acclaimed production of Pergolesi’s La Serva Padrona, a light and charming comedic chamber opera about a servant’s plan to become the master of the house, starring Johan Hartman and soprano Yi-Chun Sarah Tsai. Special guest stars include The Miami Oratorio Society, an African American chorus performing Black Spirituals by African American pioneering composer Florence Price and choruses from Handel’s Messiah with the Mostly Baroque Chamber Orchestra. (Running time: 75 minutes.)

Composer Kevin Puts and librettist Mark Campbell’s Pulitzer Prize–winning opera brings to life the true story of a spontaneous ceasefire on Christmas Eve during World War I—when soldiers on opposite sides of the battlefield found humanity in each other through song.

Diaspora Vibe Cultural Arts Incubator, Inc. (DVCAI) invites audiences to experience its curatorial initiative, The Container Project, at DVCAI at Barry University. The exhibition includes a six-month run of activations and interactive works from November 20, 2025, to April 17, 2026. Curated by DVCAI Founder, Curator Rosie Gordon-Wallace, based in Miami, and independent curator and creative wellness strategist Breeana Thorne, based in Los Angeles, the trans-coastal, transcontinental, and Caribbean diasporic project poses the question, “What’s in Your Container?”

The shipping container—a vessel of movement, transportation, and memory—serves as a lens through which we explore the personal and collective histories of containment. For Caribbean communities, containers and barrels symbolize both migration and support: they carry essentials, treasures, and the intangible legacies of family, culture, and resilience. These structures, physical and metaphorical, hold the weight of memory, trauma, care, and joy, reflecting the ways we navigate histories shaped by colonialism, displacement, and global exchange.

The works on view serve as sites of refuge—both physical and emotional. In response, artists turn inward, using their creative practice as containers for memory, grief, harmony, and regeneration. Students and visitors are invited to consider their own vessels of memory.

What’s in Your Container? How do we hold our histories? What structures sustain us? And, how can we transform grief and loss into acts of preservation, care, and renewed community?

“The Container Project challenges us to see both the fragility and the resilience of memory, and encourages us to preserve the legacies of the past while imagining new forms of collective care and renewal.” – Breeana Thorne, Curator.

Exhibiting artists are Rimaj Barrientos, Jevon Alexander Brown, Patricia Cooke, Michael Elliott, Natou Fall, Jessica Freites, Rosa Naday Garmendia, Miguel Keerveld, Shayla Marshall, Sydney Rose Maubert, Lance Minto-Strouse, Shawna Moulton, Kurt Nahar, Amarachi Odimba, Evelyn Politzer, L.A.

Freedom Tower
600 Biscayne Blvd,
Miami, Florida, 33132
Eventbrite
Cost: Free

Join artist Cristina Lei Rodriguez and MOAD team members for a new type of workshop. During MOAD Stories, participants will enjoy a special curated tour of the Freedom Tower, focused on personal reflection and storytelling. Following the tour, attendees will gather in the Knight Skylight Gallery for conversation and artmaking. All ages are welcome. Museum admission and workshop are free for all those who register.

Cristina Lei Rodriguez is an American visual artist known for an expansive practice that includes installation, photography, sculpture, public art, and more recently, painting. Rodriguez’s artworks are influenced by her identity and experience in the cultural landscape of the American tropics. Her perspective comes through in the landscapes she creates that position nature as a tool for deep reflection about accumulation, decay, transformation, and texture. The works are variously textured- like layers of ground sedimentation- created from materials that are plastic and industrial and, on the other end of the spectrum, precious and earthy.

Visitors to the Freedom Tower may park for free in the MDC garage at 500 NE Second Avenue, between NE Fifth and NE Sixth Streets.

The Museum of Art and Design (MOAD) at MDC may document the event, including its attendees. By entering the area, and/or participating in the event, you consent to the recording and its use in any form.

MOAD’s programs are made possible with the support of the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs and the Cultural Affairs Council, the Miami-Dade County Mayor, and Board of County Commissioners. They are sponsored in part by the State of Florida through the Division of Arts and Culture, and with generous support from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The Miami Herald is a media sponsor of MOAD’s programming.

Miami, Florida, 33131

Cost: Free

This November, Noche de Arte returns to where it all began—with the artists who started it all. Co-founders Jean Blackwell Font and Ignacio “Iggy” Font bring their creative partnership full circle in an intimate exhibition that reveals the origin story of collaboARTive through their individual works.

Full Circle celebrates the journey from two artists sharing a vision to a thriving community of 400 artists and a movement that has touched thousands. Through Jean’s exploration of inherited memory and Iggy’s meditation on transformation and renewal, the exhibition explores the themes that sparked collaboARTive in 2017: connection, accessibility, and the transformative power of creating.

For Jean and Iggy, what they do and say through collaboARTive is integral to the work they make. The organization embodies the same philosophy that drives their art: everyone has value, everyone has meaning.

The Work
Jean Blackwell Font: 15 Generations
Since 2010, Jean has developed her 15 Generations project to connect people of all historical backgrounds to each other and to their origins. Through personal interviews, oral history, photography, collagraphy, collage, and assemblage, this ongoing body of work stretches across oceans to Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean.

For this exhibition, Jean focuses on epigenetic trauma—the complex emotions and stories embedded within human DNA and passed through generations. Using assemblage, mixed media, printmaking, and collage, she creates an immersive visual experience that is both universal and deeply personal. Her work strengthens the understanding that we are a universal family, connected by bloodlines, language, shared traditions, and dedication to family—traits that bind every living being together.

Ignacio Font: Structures Series
Iggy’s Structures Series offers an accessible entry point into paintings born from human experience—the transformation of trauma into something beautiful that can hang in someone’s living room. Rather than focusing on the emotional weight, the series invites viewers to explore structure: the words that manifest each piece, the imperfect geometric lines that build the foundation, and the materials that carry the work’s deepest meaning.

Manifestations Structure emerged from the romantic notion of manifesting larger space for collaboARTive—space that belongs to the artists, where they can take care of each other and thrive.

Broken Structure gives new life to damaged canvases—sliced, torn, neglected, even partially eaten by rats. Old canvases abandoned by other artists, stiff canvas unused for years, gauze mesh forgotten in storage—materials that have outlived their original purpose become perfect for something new. The work is stopped at the point where it’s ready to be worked on—not complete, but good enough. The broken parts give us our strength and uniqueness.

The Structures Series embodies the same principle that built collaboARTive: making art from things that have been overlooked or neglected, giving value to what others discard, and recognizing that what’s been broken might be exactly what someone needs to thrive. Everyone has value. Everyone has meaning.

The Origin Story
In 2017, Jean and Iggy recognized a critical gap in Miami’s arts ecosystem: emerging and mid-career artists were being priced out of studio spaces and creative opportunities. They envisioned something different—a place where artists could work affordably, connect authentically, and build sustainable creative practices together.

This exhibition brings their journey full circle, celebrating not just where collaboARTive has been, but where it’s going— building Miami’s most welcoming creative community. What they do and say through collaboARTive is integral to the work they make: everyone has value, everyone has meaning.

Visit the Exhibition
When: Every Monday in November, 6–8 PM
Where: Gallery 100, InterContinental Miami, 100 Chopin Plaza, Miami FL 33131
Admission: Free and open to all

Join us for light bites from InterContinental Miami, complimentary postcard collage activities, and the chance to meet Jean and Iggy as they share the story behind the story—the moments, struggles, and triumphs that built collaboARTive into what it is today.

Hollywood, Florida, 33020
RSVP / Register
Cost: Free

Hollywood Art and Culture Center, celebrating its 50th anniversary, will unveil the addition of the Hollywood Arts Hub to its historic Kagey Home main campus with a grand opening ribbon cutting set for noon on Sunday, November 2 – exactly 50 years from The Center’s opening in 1975 – with local dignitaries. The public is invited to attend the special event and enjoy complimentary tours, performances, artmaking and more in the new arts education wing.

The new Hollywood Arts Hub now holds the unique architectural distinction in Broward County of having adjoining, functional spaces built 101 years apart. It includes a 110-seat Arts Auditorium, the Create More Art Studio, a Digital Media Lab with multimedia studio classrooms, the outdoor Imagine Courtyard, a multi-purpose room for dance, drama, artist talks, film screenings, meeting space and more. This building will be a visual landmark in Downtown Hollywood drawing residents and visitors to The Center.

The distinctly dramatic and contemporary design by award winning architectural firm, Brooks + Scarpa merges with the existing two-story, historic 1924 Mediterranean Revival architecture of the Kagey Home, which houses The Center galleries and administrative offices.

Construction of the Arts Hub was funded by the City of Hollywood through dedicated funding from the 2019 General Obligation Bond that was approved by City voters in a special election. The Pirtle Construction team broke ground on April 30, 2024, and will meet the opening deadline as planned.

As part of the Arts Hub grand opening, residents and visitors can also view The Center’s current exhibitions: Dennis Scholl: A Day of Four Sunsets, Felice Grodin: Where do I go from here? and Brian Reedy: Gothic Pop Prints. These exhibits were made possible through support from the City of Hollywood, Broward County Cultural Division, Broward County Board of County Commissioners, Max Chira and Family, State of Florida Division of Arts and Culture, National Endowment for the Arts, Community Foundation Broward, David and Francie Horvitz Family Foundation, Josephine S. Leiser Foundation, Memorial Healthcare System, The Windhover Foundation & Quadracci Family, Kofsky Weinger, PA, and Helen Ingham Foundation.

The Parker
707 NE 8th Street,
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, 33304
Website
Cost: Tickets start at $35 (plus fees)

South Florida Symphony Orchestra (SFSO), led by Sebrina María Alfonso, returns to illuminate and inspire joy this holiday season with its beloved performances of Handel’s glorious Messiah (Part 1, the Christmas portion) culminating in the iconic “Hallelujah” chorus, and modern Holiday Pops favorites on December 6, at 7:30 p.m., at The Parker in Fort Lauderdale. SFSO will be joined by vocal soloists Katherine Henly (soprano), Maggie Reneé (mezzo-soprano), Christopher W. Waite (tenor), Neil Nelson (bass-baritone) and the South Florida Symphony Chorus. Enjoy a pre-concert chat with Dr. Alan Mason 30 minutes before the concerts, featuring in-depth conversation and insights about the works and composer.

SFSO’s 2025 holiday program will open with a selection of Holiday Pops festive favorites including “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” “The Prayer” (as made popular by Andrea Bocelli), “You Make It Feel Like Christmas” (as made popular by Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani), “Christmas Canon” (made popular by Trans-Siberian Orchestra) and “Festive Sounds of Hanukkah.” Audiences are also invited to sing along to a special medley of cherished classics – “Jingle, Bells,” “Silent Night,” “Joy to the World” and more.

Per tradition, SFSO will close the joyous evening with Part I of Handel’s Messiah culminating with the iconic “Hallelujah” chorus as sung by the South Florida Symphony Chorus, made-up of seasoned chorale singers and community talent, directed by Dr. Giselle Elgarresta Rios. Rios and Maestra Alfonso collaborated to create the South Florida Symphony Chorus in 2019, which made its debut at the Beethoven 250th celebration in February of 2020.

SFSO’s 28th season of “Juxtapositions” explores beauty in contrasts, where the bold and the sublime intersect, and timeless masterpieces share the stage with today’s most compelling and celebrated musical voices. From Mozart’s vivacious “Haffner” symphony to the sun-drenched skies of Mendelssohn’s “Italian” and the sweeping emotion of Sibelius’ Violin Concerto — performances burst with color and power. Beethoven’s luminous Piano Concerto No. 4 and Dvořák’s Bohemian Eighth deepen the journey, while Rimsky-Korsakov’s Capriccio espagnol whirls with Spanish flair. SFSO is also proud to present upcoming orchestra firsts by GRAMMY-nominated composers, including the Florida premiere of Had to Be by Haitian-American Nathalie Joachim, featuring breakout cellist Seth Parker Woods, and Carlos Simon’s Four Black American Dances.

From sold-out masterworks performances to accompanying today’s musicians such as Natalie Merchant and performing modern musical scores including Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas and Back to the Future, featuring the iconic films screened live with audio and musical accompaniment, South Florida’s largest symphonic orchestra is continuing its journey of excellence inspiring audiences of all ages and musical genres. Back by popular demand, SFSO will accompany ARRIVAL from Sweden: The Music of ABBA on Feb. 26 at the Broward Center.
