There will be much insight on various eco-friendly foundations who cater to those who need shelter, clothes, food and water amongst the many bare necessities for the human race.

About Historic Virginia Key Beach:

2015 marks the 70th year Anniversary of the Historic Virginia Key Beach Park. In the 40â€™s, 50â€™s & 60â€™s Virginia Key Beach located on the island of Virginia Key, was designated as a unique vacation spot strictly for blacks. Located in Dade-County, this beach was the answer (for people of color) to South Floridaâ€™s whites-only beaches pre-1960â€™s Civil Rights. By 1979, Virginia Key Beach had been transferred to the City of Miami and was transformed into park status. Then in 1982 the park closed and was left abandoned until 2008. During the nearly 20 years of abandonment, the Virginia Key Beach Park Trust was formed and the park saw life again! This committee of dedicated people achieved getting the park placed on the National Register of Historic Places and the Florida Historic Marker. This â€œParadise Renewedâ€ is also designated as a Historic Site by the Miami Historic & Environmental Preservation Board! Today, Historic Virginia Key Beach Park is an anchor in the rebirth of the beautiful natural island of Virginia Key, â€œMiamiâ€™s Central Parkâ€!

From 1960-1962, over 14,000 unaccompanied Cuban children left their homeland in what became the largest recorded child refugee exodus in the Western Hemisphereâ€”an event that remained essentially unknown for over 30 years. Fearing their childrenâ€™s indoctrination by Fidel Castroâ€™s newly installed socialist and revolutionary government, parents entrusted their childrenâ€™s fate with government and religious organizations in the U.S. Some children would reunite with their parents quickly, others after years of separation, and still others never saw their parents again. Experience the history of this event through video testimonies by the now grown children and artifacts such as letters, photographs, and other personal items documenting the stories of what became known as â€œOperation Pedro Pan.â€ In partnership with Operation Pedro Pan Group, Inc.

Cost: Free

Victor Deupi is a Cuban American architect and architectural historian dedicated to promoting representational painting as a critical component of contemporary art and architecture. Inspired by Italy’s majestic cities, monuments, and landscapes – as well as the preceding generations of architects and artists who immersed themselves in the grandeur of Bell’Italia – his watercolors and paintings represent the timeless expression of architectural form and space. Painted largely in situ, Deupi’s works capture the spirit of art, architecture, and landscape while providing compelling vistas onto classical culture’s enduring legacy in the modern age.

Dr. Deupi received a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Virginia, a Master of Architecture from Yale University, and a Ph.D. in Architectural History & Theory from the University of Pennsylvania. Presently he is a Lecturer in Architecture at the University of Miami, and his book, Architectural Temperance: Spain and Rome, 1700-1759, was published by Routledge in 2015.

This exhibit featuring over 20 original works, opens on Friday, June 5 – Mercedes Benz of Coral Gables Gallery Night Live at the Museum.

As Baltimore jumps knee deep into the struggle, the Black Lives Matter movement has evolved into the Black Spring. And in the media we are witnessing a polarizing debate about the acceptance, inevitability and effectiveness of the eruptions in the street. Unfortunately, the question is usually posed in very simplistic terms: For, or Against violence.

We need a deeper analysis, so this is the perfect time to watch Concerning Violence – an unforgettable film that combines unseen footage of the African liberation movements of the 20th century with Frantz Fanon’s deep analysis on the relationship between violence and resistance.

Doors open at 7:00, film goes on at 7:30
Screening is free, drinks are cheap, and free popcorn will be flowing!

CLOSING RECEPTION
Saturday, March 30, 7PM

Free with museum admission

This group exhibition builds on the work: Temporary Autonomous Zones (TAZ) by Hakim Bey (Peter Lamborn Wilson). The project is curated by Richard Haden.

TAZ â€œalludes to creating temporary spaces that elude formal structures of controlâ€¦thus creating the foundation for authenticity and spontaneityâ€. Richard Haden proposes to articulate the exhibition through TAZ and the ways in which it has to do with recreating an â€œintentional communityâ€ (IC) which relates to how past communities purposefully organized in various forms as collectives, to succeed as small villages or townships, guilds, radical groups, et cetera, that eventually gave way to controlling socio-economic structures, which eventually led to the loss of authentic empowerment.

Acoustica21: In honor of Terry Riley featuring Sarah Cahill, piano 5/15/15

Posted on May 16, 2015May 17, 2015 by calendar

Acoustica21: In honor of Terry Riley, feat. Sarah Cahill, piano
Sunday, 05/23/2015 – 03:00 pm – 04:30 pm
Sarah_Cahill Bakehouse Art Complex
561 NW 32nd St.,
Miami, Florida 33127
None Link
Cost: $10; free with student ID

The â€œfiercely giftedâ€ (New York Times) pianist Sarah Cahill returns to Miami to perform yet another fantastic program. The event is set to celebrate the 80th birthday of Terry Riley, one of the most iconic American composers. Sarah explains: â€œHis music is far more complex and adventurous than people give him credit for, and he has written so much terrific music since In C,â€ his most infamous opus. Newly commissioned works of four emerging composers (Sam Adams, Danny Clay, Christine Southworth and Dylan Mattingly) are featured together with pieces by Pauline Oliveros, Evan Ziporyn and Juraj Kojs.

Sarah talks about the concert: â€œWhat I love about this program is that each composer reflects on Terry Riley’s music but none of the pieces sound like him. Â Using a tiny speaker hidden in the piano, Sam Adams creates resonances with sine waves in duet with the pianist. Â Evan Ziporyn’s You Are Getting SleepyÂ gets some of its inspiration from Evan’s work with Balinese gamelan and Ghanaian drumming. Â Christine Southworth’s Sparkita and Her Kittens deconstructs a Bollywood soundtrack. Â 25-year-old Danny Clay’s three-movement Circle Songs shimmersÂ with Terry Riley’s sunny positive California energy, but the resemblances stop there. Pauline Oliveros’ A Trilling Piece for TerryÂ is a structured improvisation, which I have been playing as a duet with whoever is turning pages for that particular concert. Â Pauline has known Terry since the 60s when they co-founded the San Francisco Tape Music Center, so it’s particularly meaningful to have a piece by her.â€

The concert features a world premiere: Kojsâ€™ In the Mist, a piece also commissioned by Sarah Cahill. The work combines traditional playing and unconventional extended techniques, including the reformulation of pianist’s hands and feet as percussion instruments.
