Kick off the 2026 PAMMSonic DJ series and Miami Music Week with Danny Daze, Cuban-American DJ and music producer.

Steeped in Miami’s B-boy culture, Daze’s obsession with the “raw and unpolished” began with classic electro and Miami bass, eventually fueling his deep dive into the experimental Dutch and Detroit techno scenes of the ’90s. Drawing inspiration from powerhouse labels like Schematic, Interdimensional Transmissions, and Viewlexx, Daze brings a sonic edge that is both raw and unapologetically authentic. Before the set, enjoy a tour in the galleries and grab a happy hour snack and drink at our waterfront restaurant Verde.

Miami, it’s time.
On March 7th, Low Key Experience and Intriga come together for the first time, taking over the downstairs room at MODE Miami for a night built on vision, culture, and sound.
Intriga has carved out its own lane in the city, curating rooms that feel intentional and rooted in underground energy. Intriga has been steadily building a movement of its own design-forward, community-driven nights centered around progressive house, tech house, and afro-leaning rhythms that keep the dance floor connected from open to close.
Founded by Miami-based DJ and curator Santelises, Intriga was born from a simple idea: create experiences that feel elevated but raw, intimate yet powerful. Since its inception, the project has grown organically. from boutique rooms to respected collaborations, always prioritizing sound, atmosphere, and the people in the room over hype.
Santelises, originally from the Dominican Republic and shaped by Miami’s underground scene, brings a refined blend of progressive house, tech house, and afro-influenced grooves. His sets are built on percussion, tension, and storytelling.crafted to move a room rather than just fill it.
On March 7th, two brands that understand the culture step into one space with a shared vision.
One room. One frequency. Full intention.

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).

Featuring thought-provoking paintings by Cuban-American artist, Carlos Alfonzo (1950-1991), and powerful prints by Cuban artist, Belkis Ayón (1967-1999), the exhibition highlights their shared engagement with history, identity, and visual storytelling, and underscores their enduring impact on contemporary art. While their artistic approaches differ, their works converge through shared engagements with historical myth, complex spiritual belief systems, and a commitment to visual storytelling that unfolds as an ongoing journey.

Written by Bryan Keyth Wilson
Directed by Brittany King
Choreographed by Gentry George

Brévo Theatre presents a powerful series of staged readings by award-winning playwright Bryan Keyth Wilson, spotlighting urgent stories that interrogate race, power, memory, and survival in America. Featuring The Otha Amerikkka, 8:46, and FAFO, this reading series offers audiences an intimate first look at works in development that confront systemic injustice, generational trauma, and the lived realities of Black communities.

The Otha Amerikkka
“tha other ameriKKKa” is a choreopoem inspired by Martin Luther King Jr’s powerful lecture On April 14, 1967 at Stanford University. This choreopoem is a contemporary analysis of the duality and reality that plague America. Why is there this other America for the marginalized and people with skin colors other than white? Through a blend of poetry, prose, music, and movement, the piece challenges perceptions and sparks dialogue on the complexities of the American experience.

8:46
8:46 delves into the collective and individual experiences of those whose lives were irrevocably altered on that fateful morning. The play weaves together testimonies, memories, and poetic expressions, creating a tapestry of voices that reflect the complex realities of race, privilege, and trauma in the aftermath of 9/11. The title, 8:46, serves as a poignant reminder of the exact time the first plane struck, marking the beginning of an event that changed the world forever and left deep scars on those whose stories are seldom told.

F*** Around And Find Out
A raw, unapologetic breakdown of who showed up, who stayed home, and how the choices we make at the ballot box shape the world we live in. Told through powerful vignettes, FAAFO blends investigative theatre with intimate character studies, using real statistics and lived experiences to dissect the racial and gender divides in voting—because democracy isn’t just a right, it’s a reckoning. In this bold theatrical experiment, two actors—one Black man and one Black woman—embody a kaleidoscope of voices, slipping seamlessly between personas to reveal the personal stakes behind the percentages. From impassioned testimonies to stark moments of reckoning, FAAFO forces us to confront the numbers not as abstract data, but as human stories—messy, complicated, and impossible to ignore.

This workshop will be hosted at Taco Rico – Doral. In 1992, we opened our first location in Coral Gables and quickly became the go-to spot for University of Miami students. For 14 years, Taco Rico grew alongside the budding demand for Tex-Mex restaurants, forcing us to open a South Beach location in 2006, and then three more in Pinecrest (2008), Doral (2011), and Bird Road (2014). In 2015, we franchised our business and established our first franchisee-owned unit in the Kendall area, followed by Brickell and Cutler Bay!

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.)

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.

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.

Talk Highlights Mental Health, Autism Awareness, and Veteran Support

Miami, FL — Ultimate Brain Health is proud to announce it will open its Miami location on Wednesday, April 16th, with a special presentation by Dr. Kevin T. Murphy, the pioneering physician behind the groundbreaking, scientifically proven PrTMS ® brain treatment.

PrTMS (Personalized repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is an FDA-approved, non-invasive, drug-free therapy that uses MRI technology and brainwave data to personalize treatment and restore neurological balance. Attending virtually, Dr. Murphy will demonstrate how this tailored approach improves focus, memory, sleep, and emotional regulation in both children and adults—and how it has helped veterans, professional athletes, and even his autistic son.

“Many conventional treatments only manage symptoms,” says Dr. Murphy. “PrTMS® focuses on correcting the brainwave disruptions at the root of those symptoms.”

Timed to align with Autism Acceptance Month (April) and Mental Health Awareness Month (May), the presentation aims to spotlight a new era of mental wellness, particularly for those struggling with conditions such as anxiety, depression, brain fog, PTSD, migraines, OCD, and autism.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 1 in 36 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC). Approximately 44% of the ASC population respond to PrTMS treatment.

Patients and parents of patients are available via Zoom for interviews associated with Autism awareness. Please call to arrange: 786-745-8152

With its innovative, customized approach, PrTMS® offers new hope, especially for those who have not found success with traditional therapies. Veterans and active-duty military covered by Tricare are especially encouraged to attend.

Noche de Arte is a weekly arts activation and exhibition that breaks down barriers between artist and viewer and creates opportunities for conversation and community.

Join us for an evening of art activation in the Gallery Lounge of InterContinental Miami Hotel, featuring a local Miami artist creating their latest work. Each month, a new artist is showcased, offering visitors an expansive introduction to our vibrant city’s diverse array of artistry.

This month’s featured artist is Isaie “Zeek” Mathias.
