Freedom Tower
600 Biscayne Boulevard,
Miami, Florida, 33132
Website
Cost: Free

Join MOAD at the Freedom Tower for an engaging edition of the Kislak Talks series, Becoming Mexico City: Early Maps of the Oldest Continuous Metropolis in the Americas featuring Dr. Delia Cosentino, Professor of History of Art and Architecture at DePaul University in Chicago.

This talk features a series of maps made during the first 100 years of Spanish colonial rule to show how the capital city of Mexico has taken shape, both in terms of urban planning—and in the imagination. Cartography by both native and European artists demonstrates how the capital of the Aztec Empire, called Tenochtitlan, provided the literal foundations for the early modern Spanish capital that replaced it following the European invasion in the 1520s. The maps showcase Aztec migration and mythology, the incursion of Hispanic elements into native spaces, and other intriguing aspects of the oldest continuous metropolis in the Americas.

Dr. Delia Cosentino is Professor of History of Art and Architecture at DePaul University in Chicago, specializing in the visual culture of Greater Mexico. She is currently a Mellon Foundation Long-Term Fellow at the Newberry Library (2025-2026), researching Aztec gladiators. Cosentino co-authored Resurrecting Tenochtitlan: Imagining the Aztec Capital in Modern Mexico City (UT Press, 2023) with Adriana Zavala (Tufts University) and wrote Las Joyas de Zinacantepec: Arte Colonial en el Monasterio de San Miguel (Colegio Mexiquense, Mexico, 2007). She also curated Ceramic Trees of Life from Mexico (Fowler Museum, UCLA, 2003), Reverence Renewed: Colonial Andean Art from the Thoma Collection (DePaul Art Museum [DPAM], 2009), and Nexo/Nexus: Latin American Connections in the Midwest (DPAM, 2016).

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 (designated Building 7 on MDC’s Wolfson Campus parking map).

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.

The programs at the Freedom Tower, operated by the Museum of Art and Design (MOAD) at Miami Dade College (MDC), 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 the Board of County Commissioners. They are sponsored by the State of Florida through the Division of Arts and Culture, the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), with collections, exhibition, and marketing support from ArtesMiami, Art Bridges Foundation, the Shepard Broad Foundation, the Miami Downtown Development Authority (Miami DDA), Henry Luce Foundation, Jay I.

Together, these works illuminate how personal and collective memory travel across borders and generations.

Mirta Ojito, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of “Finding Mañana: A Memoir of a Cuban Exodus.”

Crack open opportunities for Miami-Dade area youth! Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade will celebrate the 15th Annual “Claws for Kids” fundraising luncheon on Tuesday, May 5, at Joe’s Stone Crab, honoring the legacy of longtime Board member Judy Kramer while raising critical funds to support youth programs serving thousands of children across Miami-Dade County.

The signature event is part of the organization’s year-long 80th anniversary celebration, marking eight decades of providing mentorship, educational support, and enrichment opportunities to local youth. Proceeds from the luncheon will directly benefit programs including after-school care, tutoring and homework assistance, STEM education, arts and cultural programming, athletics, and summer initiatives across the organization’s six club locations.

Guests will enjoy Joe’s Stone Crab’s iconic menu during one of the final weeks of stone crab season, with registration and reception beginning at 11 a.m., followed by lunch and entertainment at noon.

Channel 7 News Anchor Belkys Nerey will return as master of ceremonies. The event is co-chaired by mother-daughter duo Lisa Mendelson and Lindsey Mendelson Pearson, with Olga Guilarte serving as Special Events Chair.
“Claws for Kids” is held in memory of Judy Kramer, who helped create the event and chaired it from its inception until her passing in 2021. Her leadership helped establish the luncheon as one of the organization’s premier annual fundraisers supporting youth development in Miami-Dade County.

“We are proud to celebrate 15 years of ‘Claws for Kids’ during our 80th anniversary year,” said Alex Rodriguez-Roig, president of Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade. “This event represents our community coming together to ensure local youth have access to the programs and resources they need to succeed and build great futures.”

Supporters unable to attend may still participate by purchasing sponsorship gift cards through the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade website, allowing them to enjoy Joe’s Stone Crab at a later date while supporting the cause.

South Florida Symphony Orchestra Presents Dvořák, Sibelius and Schubert at New World Center 3/10/26

South Florida Symphony Orchestra Presents Dvořák, Sibelius and Schubert at New World Center
Tuesday, 03/10/2026-, 07:30 pm-09:30 pm
New World Center
500 17th Street,
Miami Beach, Florida, 33139
Website
Cost: Tickets start at $35 (plus fees)

South Florida Symphony Orchestra (SFSO), led by award-winning music director Maestra Sebrina María Alfonso, presents a program bursting with Bohemian joy and Nordic intensity. Dvořák’s beloved Symphony No. 8 radiates warmth while Sibelius’ Violin Concerto featuring special guest artist Siwoo Kim stirs the soul. Schubert’s Overture in D major (In the Italian Style), a playful wink to Rossini’s famed operas, opens the program at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 10, at New World Center in Miami Beach (500 17th Street). Enjoy a pre-concert chat 30 minutes before the concert with Dr. Alan Mason, professor emeritus of music at Barry University for in-depth conversation and insights about the works and composers.

Radiant melodies and rustic charm define Antonín Dvořák’s Symphony No. 8, a heartfelt tribute to his Bohemian homeland. Composed at the height of his career and inspired by the countryside surrounding Prague, the symphony brims with birdsong-like themes, folk rhythms, and sweeping lyricism. Joyful and deeply expressive, Dvořák’s Eighth captures the spirit of Bohemia and the heartbeat of Prague.

Haunting lyricism and virtuosic fireworks come to life in Jean Sibelius’ emotionally expressive Violin Concerto, the only concerto he composed in his lifetime. Written during a turbulent time in the composer’s life, the expressive brilliance of returning SFSO guest artist Siwoo Kim, will bring a passionate take on the demanding and dramatic work.

Siwoo Kim is an “incisive” and “compelling” violinist (The New York Times) who “plays with stylistic sensitivity and generous tonal nuance” (The Chicago Tribune). Kim actively performs as soloist and chamber musician and he is the founding co-artistic director of VIVO Music Festival in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio. Since his Carnegie Hall concerto debut with the Juilliard Orchestra, he has gone on to perform as soloist with orchestras in four different continents including Tucson Symphony, Houston Symphony, Columbus Symphony, Seongnam Philharmonic, Johannesburg Philharmonic, and Orchestre Royal de Chambre de Wallonie. As chamber musician, he performs regularly at festivals. He is the principal violinist of Music From Copland House. An advocate of new music, Kim premiered and recorded Samuel Adler’s only violin concerto with Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt on Linn Records. Along with ECCO (East Coast Chamber Orchestra), Siwoo recently made the premiere recording of Michael Torke’s “Last,” a 12-movement work for solo violin and string orchestra.

Hoping to gain an operatic commission from the Viennese theaters, Franz Schubert wrote two operatic overtures “in the Italian style” in 1817. His Overture in D major, composed of several tunes, and laden with Schubertian harmonic changes, is zesty, filled with operatic flair, and is pleasingly adorned with unmistakable charm.

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 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.

Tickets are now on sale beginning at $35 (plus ticketing fees). Buy tickets online at southfloridasymphony.org; by phone at (305) 673-3331; or in-person at the New World Center Box Office.

Tell the DJs what you want to hear and we promise we listen better than your ex. It’s loud, it’s emotional, and it’s the kind of night that reminds you it was never just a phase.

History Fort Lauderdale invites the community to celebrate the life and legacy of pioneering educator, philanthropist and founder Ivy Stranahan during its Ivy Stranahan Birthday Tea at noon on Tuesday, February 24 in the historic New River Inn. The tea event commemorates what would have been Ivy Stranahan’s 145th birthday and honors her lasting contributions to education, preservation, and the cultural foundation of Fort Lauderdale. Guests will enjoy an elegant afternoon of tea, crumpets and light bites in one of the city’s most iconic historic landmarks with special guest Mary Cromartie Morris.

As an outspoken advocate for the Seminole Tribe, Stranahan taught them English, was responsible for building their first school and instilled practical skills such as how to use a sewing machine. Her humanitarian efforts eventually helped the Seminoles to set themselves up as a business, allowing them to organize themselves as the Seminole Tribe of Florida, Inc. in 1957. In 1911, she helped to found and initially lead the Fort Lauderdale Woman’s Club. In 1916, Stranahan served as the first president of the Women’s Suffrage Association of Florida and later founded the local Audubon Society and was active in the Fort Lauderdale Garden Club continuing to oppose the growing commercialization of her beloved city.

Castro describes the exhibition as a “Ten-Minute Stop,” offering viewers a pause for authenticity and unfiltered expression amid a world influenced by standardization, censorship, and lingering colonial structures.

Featuring works by Pedro Pablo Bacallao Perdomo, Gloria de la Caridad García, Misleidys Castillo, Isaac Crespo, Daldo Marte, Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara, and Martha Iris Pérez Santana, the exhibition spans collage, drawing, sculpture, and photography, presenting a powerful and non-stereotypical vision of resilience and creative autonomy.

The exhibition will be on display at Copperbridge Foundation from February 27 through May 23, 2026.

The works are drawn from the NAEMI Collection, made possible through the generous support of Juan Martin, NAEMI’s Executive Director. The exhibition will be accompanied by a specially designed catalogue and a series of public programs, including a panel discussion, documentary screenings, and community-engaged initiatives.

The art exhibit would not have been made possible without the help of organizations like Broward Behavioral Health Coalition (BBHC) Inc., which provides a comprehensive system of care for substance use, mental health, and co-occurring disorders for individuals in Broward County.

Other events and activities taking place during the exhibition will include:

Panel Discussion on Wednesday, March 4 at 6 p. m. to 9 p.m.: Elvia Rosa Castro will participate in a panel discussion, Channeling Wellness Through the Arts, alongside Silvia Quintana, LMHC, CAP, CEO of Broward Behavioral Health Coalition. The discussion will explore how art contributes to wellness across diverse lived experiences and supports healing and recovery.

Drumming Circle on Friday, May 22 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.: South Florida Wellness Network will conduct a drumming circle led by a performer in recovery. This is a participatory experience inviting the audience to express and interact through drumming. This event will mark the closing of the exhibition.

The documentary follows Dr. Guy Harvey’s transformation from an inquisitive boy into a prominent advocate for ocean conservation. Growing up in Jamaica and trained as a marine biologist, he dedicated his life to the creatures that first ignited his imagination, capturing their beauty and power in striking artwork of ocean life that has become just as iconic. However, beneath the surface of his paintings lies a more profound narrative, one of commitment, discipline, and a lifelong mission to safeguard the waters that have given him purpose. What started as childhood sketches of blue marlins evolved into a global initiative where art, science and conservation intertwine. This film explores that journey, presenting a portrait of a man.

Directed by Emmy Award-winning director and producer Nick Nanton, the film has been selected to close out the prestigious Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival (FLIFF). The screening will be followed by a Q&A with cast and crew, and a celebratory meet and greet event with Dr. Harvey will take place immediately after.

Cost: free

Exploring the lasting cultural, ecological, and historical impact of its native plants and crops
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Drawing on materials from the Jay I. Kislak Collection of the Early Americas, Exploration and Navigation, “Roots of the Americas” explores the enduring significance of crops native to the Americas, including corn, tobacco, cacao, and a variety of medicinal flora. The exhibition highlights the deep relationships Indigenous communities developed with these crops and the ways botanical knowledge and agricultural practices shaped societies across the hemisphere long before the arrival of Europeans. These plants held spiritual, cultural, and economic meaning, and they played a central role in sustaining community life.

“Roots of the Americas” also examines the profound changes that followed European contact. As these crops entered global markets and imperial systems, they reshaped local economies, altered landscapes, and influenced daily life throughout the Americas. Their histories continue to define contemporary foodways, economies, and cultural identities, revealing how the legacies of colonialism remain present today.

South Florida Symphony Orchestra Presents Joachim, Simon, Mozart and Rimsky-Korsakov at Tennessee Williams Theatre 2/14/26

South Florida Symphony Orchestra Presents Joachim, Simon, Mozart and Rimsky-Korsakov at Tennessee Williams Theatre
Saturday, 02/14/2026-, 07:30 pm-09:30 pm
Tennessee Williams Theatre
5901 College Rd,
Key West, Florida, 33040
Website
Cost: $35 – $135 (plus fees)

Timeless classics meet bold new voices as South Florida Symphony Orchestra (SFSO), led by award-winning music director and multi-generational Key West Conch native Maestra Sebrina María Alfonso, celebrates Black History Month with a standout program. SFSO will present the anticipated Florida premiere of GRAMMY® nominee Nathalie Joachim’s Had to Be, an intimate exploration of memory and identity, performed by rising cellist Seth Parker Woods and the orchestral premiere of Carlos Simon’s Four Black American Dances, a vibrant work filled with spiritual depth. Completing the program, Mozart’s “Haffner” symphony bursts with celebratory energy and elegant precision, while Rimsky-Korsakov’s crowd-pleasing Capriccio espagnol sparkles with irresistible Spanish rhythms on Saturday, February 21, at 7:30 p.m., at the Tennessee Williams Theatre at The College of the Florida Keys (5901 College Road).
Haitian American composer Nathalie Joachim’s Had To Be draws on Black Dandyism – a cultural movement blending European and Black American male fashion to convey style, status, and identity – as well as broader African diasporic influences, including Caribbean musical traditions and New Orleans second line celebrations. The three-movement concerto was written for three-time GRAMMY-nominated cellist Seth Parker Woods, described by The Guardian as “a cellist of power and grace” with “mature artistry and willingness to go to the brink.”

Had to Be is positive, prideful, and radical all at once. It represents the perpetually colorful and complex intersections between race, class, gender, power, and style. It honors what it means to be Black and continuously choosing to be free. By coincidence, or perhaps to no surprise, Woods has topped the Best Dressed Lists in Variety, Texas Monthly, and OC Register.

Cellist Seth Parker Woods is a versatile artist and advocate for contemporary music, having premiered numerous concertos written for him, including works by Tyshawn Sorey, Julia Adolphe, and Rebecca Saunders, in addition to Nathalie Joachim’s Had To Be. His GRAMMY-nominated, autobiographical work Difficult Grace has been performed to critical acclaim at major venues including 92NY, CAP UCLA, and the San Diego Symphony. Woods has appeared at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and Konzerthaus Dortmund, among others. Since 2022, he has served on the faculty of USC Thornton School of Music and was appointed Robert Mann Chair in Strings and Chamber Music in 2024. He has also held residencies with the Kaufman Music Center and Seattle Symphony and received the 2022 Chamber Music America Michael Jaffee Visionary Award.

SFSO is also proud to present its orchestral premiere of Four Black American Dances from GRAMMY-nominated African American composer, Carlos Simon, the composer-in-residence for the John F. Kennedy Center.

Adding to the varied program, SFSO will perform Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Symphony No. 35 “Haffner,” a four-movement vibrant, celebratory symphony written in 1782, to honor Mozart’s friend, Sigmund Haffner, and his rise to nobility in Salzberg.

Concluding the evening is the crowd-pleasing Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s Capriccio espagnol, based on Spanish folk songs and dances, and filled with vibrant rhythms that whisk audiences off to exotic, far-off places of the imagination.

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. This season’s performances burst with color and power from the sun-drenches skies of Mendelssohn’s “Italian” to Sibelius’ soul-searching Violin Concerto to Beethoven’s luminous Piano Concerto No. 4 and Dvořák’s Bohemian Eighth.

SFSO’s Florida Keys Masterworks season of Juxtapositions runs from January through March 2026 at the Tennessee Williams Theatre in Key West. The first concert took place in January, with two remaining in the series.

Tickets are on sale now beginning at $35 (plus ticketing fees) and two concert subscription packages are still available from $59.50. Subscribers receive a 15% discount off single ticket prices. Tickets may be purchased by visiting southfloridasymphony.org, or keystix.com or by calling (305) 295-7676.

Website
Cost: Free

Join us for the final Open Studio of William Osorio’s artist residency at MDC’s Padrón Campus, featuring recent works created at the studio and an opportunity to engage with the artist.

Miami-based artist William Osorio is currently in residence at Miami Dade College’s Padrón Campus, creating new works and engaging with students, other campus groups, and members of the public during his residency, during which visitors are welcome to step into the studio and observe and interact with the artist at work, engaging in conversations about process, multidisciplinary artmaking, and the role of the artist within learning institutions.

William Osorio (b. 1989, Holguín, Cuba) is a Cuban-born American artist investigating human behavior and the convergence of identity and place. Osorio’s affinity for the power of the arts started in his youth. He studied briefly at the School of Fine Arts in Holguin (2005-2007) before emigrating to the US, where he further developed his skills on a self-taught basis.

Osorio’s practice involves art history, literature, and psychology. His work examines the complex relationship between power and knowledge and often incorporates a reinterpretation of myths. His paintings critically address themes of migration and identity, while also exploring the communicative channels between the art historical canon and urgent issues of contemporary society. Known primarily as a painter, the artist increasingly incorporates different media into his work and turns to his own family for artistic inspiration. Past works include wholly abstract compositions as well as portraits of well-known Cuban writers. More recently, his work includes portraits of his partner and reflections on new fatherhood.

Refreshments will be served.

Free parking is available at MDC’s Padrón Campus flat parking lot located at 2501 SW 6TH Street, Miami, FL 33135.

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.

American Heritage School’s Broward Campus lower school students will perform Beauty and the Beast JR. at the main Stage Theater on Thursday, Jan. 29, at 7 p.m. and Friday, Jan. 30, at 7 p.m.

Based on the original Broadway production that ran for over thirteen years and was nominated for nine Tony Awards, and the Academy Award-winning motion picture, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast JR. is a fantastic adaptation of the story of transformation and tolerance. Disney’s Beauty and the Beast JR. features some of the most popular songs ever written by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman, along with new songs by Mr. Menken and Tim Rice.

The classic story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity. With many fun supporting roles allowing students to play objects inside the castle, this “tale as old as time” is filled with spectacular costume and set opportunities.
