Hands Across the Sand on Miami Beach was held Saturday Morning, June 26, 2010.  Surfrider Foundation, the Sierra Club, Greenpeace, Environment Florida, 1Sky, ECOMB, and the Urban Paradise Guild for Hands Across the Sand – a global day of action to say NO to offshore drilling and YES to clean energy!  Millions of people joined hands on thousands of beaches around the world to draw a literal and figurative line in the sand protecting our coasts from any more oil disasters! The only way to ensure we never again see another Deepwater Horizon is to once and for all become free of our dependence on fossil fuels. The obstacles to this are not technical, or economic – they are political. Join us in sending a message loud and clear that we demand our leaders ban all new offshore drilling and start the clean energy revolution today!

Felipe Lamoglia’s Cuban Project
with special guests Ernesto Simpson and Armando Gola
Thursday, June 24, from 9 PM – midnight
6701 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach
$10 admission
Felipe Lamoglia is a Cuban saxophonist, composer, and arranger, born in Holguin, Cuba. At the age of 18 a scholarship came from the prestigious Superior Institute of Arts (ISA), the most important University of Music in Latin America. His big professional opportunity came at age of 18, being hired to play with NG La Banda, one of the most acclaimed Cuban orchestras ever. Felipe funded his own Orchestra called Oni-Ache, traveling to Sao Paulo, Brazil in 1992 for a musical exchange program with the University of Sao Paulo and went on to live in Brazil for seven years.
It was later, in 2004 when Felipe joined the GRAMMY Award-winner Gonzalo Rubalcaba, recording his GRAMMY Award-nominated album “Paseo”, released by the prestigious Blue Note Records. Around this time he kept on performing for two years with the New Cuban Quartet all over the world. In 2006 he arranged and played on Ignacio Berroa’s new album “Codes”, also released by Blue Note Records and nominated for a GRAMMY as well. This led to performing with Mr. Berroa’s quartet in diverse tours.
Recently Felipe worked as a producer in Arturo Sandoval’s latest album “Rumba Palace”, which won a GRAMMY Award in 2008, being in charge of all the arrangement and composing. By the end of 2007 his first solo album “Dimensions”, recorded in Brazil, was released. This project incorporates his Afro-Cuban roots with strong influences of Jazz and Brazilian music. “I can assure you no other place in the world deserves my solo debut more. I really hope that everyone who in one way or another has followed and supported my music through all these years can enjoy this album and receive my sincere thanks through all my music.”
Special Guest: Ernesto Simpson
Drummer Ernesto Simpson has performed or shared stage with personalities like Carmen McRae, Dizzy Gillespie, Wynton Marsalis, Mike Stern, Michel Legrand, Herbie Hancock, Michael Brecker, George Benson, Salif Keita, Tito Puente, Giovanni Hidalgo, Arturo Sandoval, Paquito D’ Rivera, Ray Barreto, Brian Lynch and Gonzalo Rubalcaba, just to name a few. He also plays for the famous Cameroonian song-writter, singer and bass player, Richard Bona.
Special Guest: Armando Gola
Bassist Armando Gola has appeared on two GRAMMY® nominated ‘Blue Note’ label albums, ‘PASEO’ and ‘CODES’, and on ARTURO SANDOVAL’S GRAMMY® Award Winning album, ‘RUMBA PALACE’. He has played or recorded with such luminaries as Hector Martignon, Eldar Djangirov, Francisco Céspedes, Raúl di Blasio, Arturo Sandoval, Felipe Lamoglia, Jennifer López, Luis Enrique, Marisela Verena, Alejandro Sanz, Mayra Casales, and Ignacio Berroa

human rites opening reception: Thursday, June 24 – 7-9pm
Gertrude Silverstone Muss Gallery
6pm: private curator tour for upper level members ($125 and higher)
free for members, $10 for non-members
The Bass Museum of Art is pleased to present Human Rites. This exhibition examines ritual through art; and it also examines art through ritual, depending on your point of view. From mundane human activities to sacred practices, from the past through the present, rites and rituals have been pervasive subjects in artistic practice. Human Rites will present works such as 15th century devotional polychrome statues of Mary and 16th century altarpieces alongside works by renowned contemporary artists. This juxtaposition of works circumscribes the timelessness of rituals, expressed historically and anthropologically in religious, as well as other contexts.
Works of art in this exhibition also reflect both the subconscious and premeditated human need for rituals in our every day lives. Votive works by Janine Antoni and Marina Abramovich survey the ceremonial aspects of womanhood; Rirkrit Tiravanija’s Buddha figurines describe the devotional offerings that people manufacture for their gods; collected items by artists like Mark Dion, John Beech, and César Trasobares investigate form, the found object and performative aspects; Allan McCollum ‘s repetitive series’ reflect the construction of objects as substitutes for the real object. Ai Wei Wei uses the bicycle as both symbol and found object in the construction of a monumental totem form. Artists in the exhibition include: Thomas Hirschhorn, Priscilla Monge, El Anatsui, Erwin Wurm, Mark Dion, Christian Boltanski and Cesar Trasobares, and others.
Curated by Silvia Karman Cubiñá, Bass Museum of Art Executive Director and Chief Curator, and Steve Holmes, Adjunct Curator, Bass Museum of Art. This exhibition is the second of three exhibitions in The Endless Renaissance series at the Bass Museum, that began with the exhibition The Endless Renaissance in 2009 and will conclude with a publication in 2012.

The proceeds from the Florida International Wine Challenge will beneft two very worthwhile charities. We are proud to work with and support both the Florida Breast Cancer Foundation and the Melanie Finley Ovarian Cancer Foundation.

This event will also further support our charitable partners.
Gold & Silver Medal winners will be featured in the 2010 edition of the Miami International Wine Fair, October 16 and 17. These wines will shown poured at the VIP section of the Fair. The timing for this is perfect; it will be just as people are beginning to consider their holiday wine purchases.
FIWC will facilitate distribution services for companies without representation in Florida to be able to take advantage of all the benefts offered. Regional and national wine, lifestyle and entertainment publications will feature full-page advertisements listing all Gold medal winners in the months following the event.

Live @ White Room
Miami’s ‘Underground King’ Garcia is back for the free release of his third album Shattered Dreams, an album that purposely takes Garcia back to his Miami hip-hop roots of beats and rhymes. After the critical acclaim of his 2008 sophomore album Life Unscripted (which was executive produced by N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN and featured guest production by Midi Mafia, Reef, Diaz Brothers, DJ Honda, Omega One, Dani Kartel, Scram Jones, and more), Garcia and longtime producer-friend Mr. Fury went back to the lab and decided to record an album that was strictly ‘in the moment’ – free from thinking about radio, trends, blogs, etc. Consider Shattered Dreams a therapy session that we can all relate to.
Shattered Dreams – Executive Produced by DJ EFN and produced by Nick Fury HD with additional production by Hazardis Soundz (CNN, Triple C), Big Drain (CNN) and featuring Bern Biz (of ¡MAYDAY!) and Garcia’s cousin (which both of them make the group The Dysfunct) Adrianne (Of The Rescues).

1342 Washington Ave., South Beach
Felipe Lamoglia is a Cuban saxophonist, composer, and arranger, born in Holguin, Cuba. After moving to the United States in 1999, he started playing locally with great artists such as the late Celia Cruz, and also began performing regularly with Grammy Award-winner Arturo Sandoval in 2001. Recently Felipe worked as a producer in Arturo Sandoval’s latest album Rumba Palace, which won a Grammy Award in 2008, contributing as well as performer, arranger, and composer. By the end of 2007 his first solo album, Dimensions, recorded in Brazil, was released. This project incorporates his Afro-Cuban roots with strong influences of Jazz and Brazilian music. “I can assure you no other place in the world deserves my solo debut more. I really hope that everyone who in one way or another has followed and supported my music through all these years can enjoy this album and receive my sincere thanks through all my music.”
Jazz singer Marion Cowings Performs June 11 and 12 at Lincoln Road’s Upstairs at Van Dyke
World-renowned Jazz singer Marion Cowings will perform.
Upstairs at Van Dyke, 846 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach, FL 33139
Friday, June 11, 2010 and Saturday, June 12 from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m.
Marion Cowings, world-renowned Jazz singer, is set to perform June 11 and 12 at Lincoln Road’s The Upstairs at Van Dyke. Cowings, a native New Yorker, is best known for his considerable range and smooth baritone voice. For decades he has been delighting audiences around the world including venues such as Blue Note, Village Vanguard, and Lincoln Center as well as many prestigious venues abroad. New York Times writer Jon Pareles once penned that Cowings sounded like a latter-day Frank Sinatra which may be attributed to his attendance at the now famous LaGuardia High School where he was chosen to perform as a solo vocalist with the New York Philharmonic. Cowings’ newest CD features performances with Hank Jones and Frank Weiss.
Upstairs at Van Dyke is a live music lounge and event space on the second floor of the historic Van Dyke Café overlooking Lincoln Road. Known for its warm and welcoming environment, the venue has made a name for itself by while playing host to the Jazz music tradition. The venue has also recently received a mention in Time Magazine’s Miami: 10 Things to Do in 24 Hours issue. The refurbished space boasts a full-service bar, state of the art sound system, grand piano and is staffed by an acoustic engineer. Live music can be heard at Upstairs at Van Dyke nightly from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.

Miami Theatrical DIGITAL Premiere!
The Complete METROPOLIS
(Directed by Fritz Lang/1927/Germany/Restored 2009/147mins.)
With Brigitte Helm, Carl Frohlich, Fritz Rasp, Rudolf Klein-Rogge
From 1927 until the early 1980s, Metropolis was screened in a variety of versions and lengths, all of them derived from the general release prints cut by Paramount and UFA. In July 2008, it was announced that an essentially complete copy had been found — a 16mm dupe negative unearthed by the curator of the Buenos Aires Museo del Cine that was considerably longer than any existing print. It included not merely a few additional snippets, but 25 minutes of “lost†footage, about a fifth of the film, that had not been seen since its Berlin debut. The discovery of such a significant amount of material called for yet another restoration, spearheaded again by the Murnau Foundation and coordinated by their Film Restorer Anke Wilkening.
In Metropolis, a towering city of the future, society is divided into two classes: one of planners and management, who live high above the Earth in skyscrapers; and one of workers, who live and toil underground, slaves to the whistle of Metropolis’s ten-hour clock. Freder Fredersen, the only son of Metropolis’ ruler, lives a life of luxury. One day, he follows a beautiful girl down to the grim Lower City. . .
“The cumulative result is a version of “Metropolis” whose tone and focus have been changed. “It’s no longer a science-fiction film,” said Martin Koerber, a German film archivist and historian who supervised the latest restoration and the earlier one in 2001. “The balance of the story has been given back. It’s now a film that encompasses many genres, an epic about conflicts that are ages old.”-New York Times

The Divine Debris & Glorious Trash Art Exhibit
The Opening Reception is on Tuesday, June 15th at 7 pm at Miami Beach Botanical Garden, 2000 Convention Center Drive, Miami Beach, FL 33139.
artworks will be on display throughout the week during Garden Hours of 9 to 5pm. Admission is free.
Trashy side of Miami Beach art community exposed!
Once again the quirky, edgy creativity of Miami artists shines in works of art made of, or based on trash, debris and found materials recycled into Divine Debris & Glorious Trash for the annual exhibit at Miami Beach Botanical Garden during the week of June 14 through 17.
For weeks prior to the deadline, Miami artists were sighted rummaging through trash barrels, cruising neighborhood streets on recycle days, emptying closets and garages, and finding form and beauty in things most people would consider trash. Broken shells, fallen palm fronds, rusty metals, old post cards, shattered mirrors, tattered fashions, beads, weeds and possibly even skeletal remains of unidentified critters will be transformed into two and three-dimensional juried artworks as photographs, paintings, graphics, fiber art, multi-media and sculpture creations.
All entries in the 2010 Divine Debris & Glorious Trash Art Exhibit will feature works that incorporate some aspect of, or relationship to, Miami Beach in conjunction with the Arts at St. John’s ongoing History of Miami Beach Project.
Arts at St Johns, Artshare LLC and Miami Beach Botanical Garden are co-sponsors and presenters of this 2nd annual Divine Debris & Glorious Trash Art Exhibit. Dr. Carol Hoffman-Guzman, Founding Director of Arts at St Johns and Paula Turk, Sculptor/Photographer and Founder of ArtShare LLC are co-curators of this exhibit.

Went to Escopazzo Restaurant on South Beach an Organic Italian Restaurant. Â I had the rigatoni with sausage and broccoli, wow it was so good, it had so much sausage in it. Â It was perfect.
We also ordered off of their raw menu which does not contain any dairy products, it is entirely vegan. Â We tried the zucchini pasta. it was so tasty and yummy. Â The place is so cute, has a nice cozy front room and then you go down a hallway to another room, very cozy.

Joe Eshkenazi, famously known as DJ Joe Dert, once said that it was during his residency Rokbar that he knew he was meant to inject energy into a room and keep people on their feet until 5 a.m. So when considering locations for his latest cd release, it was only natural that the renowned drummer, producer and international DJ would launch his newest project – Volume 8 – at the swank lounge where his experiences became the catalyst for his success at the turntables.
Blending rock, hip-hop, old-school funk, house and electro with his signature mash-ups, Dert’s up-tempo set will also include samples from his latest compilation and a special live DJ and drum show performance with DJ Affect, dubbed as “The Joe Dert Affect.â€
On the heels of celebrating their six-year-old anniversary, the notorious rock ‘n’ roll boutique nightclub will set the stage for Dert’s return and looks forward to celebrating the night with Miami’s nocturnal hipsters.
About DJ Joe Dert
Eshkenazi’s refreshing take on music instantly became in high demand by South Beach’s premier nightclubs and lounges including: The Forge, Set, Rokbar, Snatch & Suite, Wall at the W Hotel, Nikki Beach and contributing to the opening success of the prestigious club LIV at The Fontainebleau Hotel. Additionally, international hotspots and celebrities, including Tom Cruise, Will and Jada Smith, Eva Longoria, Michael Bay, Kim Kardashian, Lance Armstrong, Nicole Richie and Matthew McConaughey, took notice of his eclectic offerings and secured him for high-profile events and residencies in Toronto, Los Angeles, Berlin, Boston, the Bahamas, Dallas, Majorca and New York.
Eshkenzi has had the privilege to work with renowned talents in the rock and electronic industries including Ozzy Ozbourne, DJ AM, Marilyn Manson, Linkin Park, DJ Vice, Korn, Rob Zombie, Creed, Disturbed, Puddle of Mudd, Pete Tong, Evanescence, Cedric Gervais and many more. Having mastered the art of entertaining and bringing cutting-edge style to sophisticated locations, Eshkenazi has gained the reputation as a diversified artist with the ability to adapt to his surroundings and really permeate life into an event.

“Miami On Stageâ€
Presenting South Florida Performing Artists
Saturday, June 5th … a Theater Night with Two Premiers
Hilo (Thread) and Sipping Fury from a Tea Cup
Buy Tickets Here.
Date & Time: 06/05/2010 8:00 PM
Byron Carlyle Theater
500 71st Street
Miami Beach
“Hilo†by Jose Manuel Dominguez, directed by Lucia Aratanha
Hilo (Thread) is a physical theatre project that uses movement, poetry, visual art and sound to express subjects of evolution, adjustment, modification, and adaptation to change for the sake of survival. Having lost his eyesight many years ago, writer and actor José Manuel DomÃnguez juxtaposes his own memories with mythological characters, and incites the audience to contemplate their own limitations and possibilities of transformation. Directed by Lucia Aratanha, “Hilo†develops in a non-traditional format. Aratanha conceptualized a set with carefully woven ropes, constructing imaginary chambers and passageways like the Labyrinth in the Greek mythology. It through this maze of ropes that the scenes move from dream to reality with no apparent chronology as a metaphor to our own mind where memories and dreams mingle. “Hilo†puts into play the realm of myths known and unknown, a world of fatal choices and unexpected mystery.
José Manuel DomÃnguez is graduated from the Instituto Superior de Arte, Havana, Cuba having Vicente Revuelta as his mentor. José Manuel was a member of the controversial and avant-garde theatre troupe Teatro El Publico with director Carlos Diaz. Their polemic productions were staged in Cuba, Spain and Brazil.
Lucia Aratanha arrived from her native Brazil to Miami in the 1990’s with 20 years of experience as a performer, choreographer and director. Her work has been presented at the International Hispanic Theatre Festival and Miami Light Project Here & Now Festival. Lucia had the pleasure to collaborate with artists Ricky J. Martinez, Giovanni Luquini, Gary Lund and Pablo Cano. “Hilo†is the third collaboration between José Manuel DomÃnguez and Lucia Aratanha.
Sipping Fury from a Tea Cup
created by Elizabeth Doud and Jennylin Duany and performed by Elizabeth Doud and Carlos Caballero
Sipping Fury from a Tea Cup is a tale of a woman, a tea cup, and a roiling pot of fertility, mutiny, destiny and honey bees, which takes place in a not so impossible future when there are no honey bees left and our pollination systems become fantastic, reckless and uncertain. Imagine a world where there are no longer any bees. Imagine a day when the pastures of plenty that we think of as guaranteed to us cease to mature into fruits and vegetables. Imagine a day when you only have enough viable soil to fit into a teacup. In the absence of these principle pollinators of the edible species we rely on for our food, and for our food’s food, the anti-heroine of our story toils in the search for revived fertility for her and the planet. This multi-disciplinary performance work explores the mystery of the disappearance of bee colonies (known as Colony Collapse Disorder), and what lengths one might go to in order to rescue our planet’s best and most threatened fertility mechanisms.
Elizabeth Doud is a performer and writer who has been influenced by many contemporary literary and movement forms, and the culture and practice of Flamenco and Capoeira. She is an independent artist and was co-Artistic Director of the Miami based Las Negras Theater Collective with collaborator Jennylin Duany. Doud arrived in Miami in 1996 to launch an unrelenting performance and collaborative stint, creating, producing and touring over a dozen original performance productions locally, nationally and abroad.
Carlos Caballero, is graduate of the Instituto Superior de Arte de la Habana. Carlos has worked as an actor in theater and specifically with Teatro El Publico and La Ventana in Cuba. Carlos has performed in over 20 plays including plays by Shakespeare, Garcia Lorca, Cocteau, and other. He has worked extensively in film and television in Italy, Spain, Brazil, Panama, Peru, Mexico, and the United States.

100% OF ALL MONIES COLLECTED WILL BE DONATED TO AMIGOS FOR KIDS CHARITY
CLUB PLAY
1045 5th Street
Miami Beach, FL 33139
8PM sharp!
The Charity: Amigos For Kids® is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing child abuse and neglect by valuing children, strengthening families and educating communities. Why doesAmigos For Kids exist? Sadly, because children across the country continue to be victims of child abuse. National statistics indicate that abuse and/or neglect is the second leading cause of death among children and of those victims 85 % are under the age of four.
In 2008, Amigos became an affiliate of the National Council of La Raza (NCLR), the largest Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States. Today, Amigos For Kidshas evolved into a mainstream nonprofit and its child abuse prevention message now reaches communities across the country – no matter their ethnicity or native language.
A word about our venue, Club Play: Club Play is the ideal setting for an array of events. The facility offers an unparalleled experience in quintessential South Beach and New York style through a successful mix of sensational yet distinctive nightclub/lounge concept. The management at Club Play has graciously welcomed The Miami Beach Veiled Wine Society and is excited about contributing to the community by allowing us to hold events at their establishment.
Parking: Valet parking will be available for a reduced cost of $10. Additionally, a municipal parking lot is conveniently located directly across the street from Club Play.

ONLY 2-3 players per team – (with a designated driver if needed)
A $10 suggested donation per person at the door (of course you can give more) to benefit Amigos For Kids (100% of the donated funds will go directly to the charity.)
Here’s how it works: Registration begins at 8pm SHARP and the event will begin at 9pm. If you are still in line and not registered by 9pm, you will be unable to compete, but you may participate. As a result, latecomers will be unable to compete for the winnings. The bottom line is: please arrive on time!
Each team of 2-3, must bring 3 bottles of the EXACT SAME Spanish Red (any red wine grape from the country of Spain). For example, a team may bring 3 bottles of Vega Sindoa Tempranillo/Merlot. Remember, it’s 3 bottles total per team and teams can consist of 2 to 3 people.
If you are alone and need to be part of a team to participate, let us know in your RSVP, and we will try to pair you up with someone else.
Also, please remember to think of a team name before arriving!
Food will NOT be served other than cheese and bread. Eat before arriving, or you may pay for it.
Upon arrival, the teams will first register. Subsequently, all 3 bottles will be given to the volunteers, who wrap two bottles to conceal the wine’s label. The wrapped bottles will have a number randomly assigned to them and will then be set out for tasting. The third bottle will be left unopened and will not be tasted or displayed.
Each team will be given a card and assigned to a specific group (A or B). The team will then participate in tasting the wine from their group. All the numbered wines for each group will be displayed on the board. At the end of the tasting period, each team must write down the number ranking of his or her favorite wine and least favorite wine. Cards will be collected and selections tallied.
The team that brought the top wine will take home 75% of the unopened bottles of wine. The second place team will take home 25% of the unopened bottles. The team that brought the least favorite bottle of wine will take back his or her unopened bottle of wine.
If 2 (or more) teams bring the same wine, it shouldn’t matter. The rankings can still differ depending upon the temperature of the wine, how it was stored, how long it has been open, etc.
Please remember, teams can consist of UP TO 3 PEOPLE ONLY. If, for example, 4 people wish to participate, they would be considered 2 teams; thus, they will need to bring 6 bottles to enter the event. This rule will be STRICTLY enforced at the door.
Finally, if you prefer to drink out of glasses, bring your own glass as you will be able to clean your glass between tastings. We will have plastic cups available for those who do not bring a wine glass. We look forward to seeing you and please arrive on time or you will miss the competition!
MBVWS
REMEMBER THE 3 GOLDEN RULES:
1) Come with a team (and a team name!) of 2-3 people!!
2) Bring 3 of the EXACT SAME wines per team!!
3) Read and understand the rules BEFORE arriving.

The Miami International Piano Festival is celebrating its 13th Season in 2010. The May Discovery Series is held at the intimate Lincoln Theater (home of the New World Symphony) on Miami Beach. The Series opens with a sure crowd-pleaser that features works by two composers who are both celebrating 200 year anniversaries in 2010: Chopin and Schumann. To pay tribute to these prolific composers of the Romantic period, the Festival will present four fantastic pianists in one evening.
Kemal Gekic and Misha Dacic both hail from former-Yugoslavia and for this program Gekic will perform provocative Chopin selections (including Scherzo Op. 20 and Polonaise Op. 53) and Dacic tackles Schumann’s tour de force, “Humoresque.” Russian pianist Ilya Itin will offer his refined interpretation of several works by Chopin such as Fantaise in F minor and Waltz Op. 34 and Cuban legend, Jorge Luis Prats presents Schumann’s delightfully varied “Symphonic Etudes.” With so much talent and exquisite repertoire sharing the stage on one evening, this concert will likely run a bit longer than most.
On Friday, May 14th, the Festival is pleased to present the South Florida concert debut of Ran Jia (China). At twenty, Ms. Jia is already regarded as a striking musician with unusual natural abilities. Tan Dun hailed her a “piano poet with dramatic skill in music making.” Her program will feature four Sonatas by Scarlatti, Shubert’s Sonata in A minor Op. 42 and Le Tombeau de Couperin by Ravel.
The popular “Prodigies and Masters of Tomorrow” matinee concert on Saturday, May 15th will see the return of the astounding Aristo Sham (Hong Kong), now 14 years old. One could almost hear the jaws dropping at Aristo’s South Florida debut at the Festival last May. His current program will feature works by Scarlatti, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Barber and Albeniz. Families with children are encouraged to attend this concert which seeks to inspire the next generation of classical music lovers.
On Saturday evening, Spanish pianist, Claudio Martinez-Mehner will make his Florida debut. Winner of numerous prizes, Mehner recently resumed his career as a solo artist and has a respected reputation as a teacher and chamber musician. His Festival program will include Beethoven Sonata Op. 109, Schumann’s Sonata Op/ 14 “Concerto without Orchestra” as well as works by Janacek and Debussy.
This year’s grand finale and closing night “Chamber Music Extravaganza” will welcome Igor Gruppman back to South Florida. Many remember Mr. Gruppman as the Concert Master of the Florida Philharmonic and at present, he is artistic director of the Concerto Rotterdam chamber orchestra and concertmaster of the Rotterdam Philharmonic. He will be joined by his wife, violinist/violist, Vesna Gruppman who teaches at the Rotterdam Conservatory in the Netherlands. Joining the Gruppmans will be pianists Ilya Itin (Russia) and Jorge Luis Prats (Cuba) as well as a special guest cellist. The program will include Schumann’s Fantasy Pieces Op. 73 and a special String Quintet transcription of Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 2. Rounding out the program will be selections by Brahms including the Piano Quartet in G minor Op. 25.
All concerts start at 8:00 p.m. except for the Saturday Matinee “Prodigies” program which begins at 2:00 p.m. A series of pre-concert Lectures and Master Classes are planned as part of the 2010 Miami International Piano Festival. The following programs are FREE and open to the public:
Friday, May 14th, 2010. 7:00 p.m. PANEL DISCUSSION: Artists and their representatives engage in a lively discussion about the challenges facing artists today, what steps are required for their continued success, how to avoid failing and also why so many have lost the drive, faith and motivation to continue concertizing.
Saturday, May 15th, 2010. 7:00 p.m. LECTURE: Frank Cooper, Research Professor of Music from the University of Miami What makes a musical personality? There are traits which distinguish musicians from the average woman or man, and traits which distinguish one musician from another. This lecture explores the characteristics that set composers and performers apart from all others, allowing for great esthetic achievements and for all too human failures.
Sunday, May 16th, 2010 7:00 p.m. FILM: “The World’s Greatest Musical Prodigies.” A three-part documentary produced by Britain’s Channel 4 Television, which is currently being distributed by American Public Television. Episode 1: Alex Prior travels to Miami at the invitation of renowned prodigy-hunter Giselle Brodsky, who runs the Miami International Piano Festival. Giselle has selected five of America’s most gifted young musicians, who have flown in from all corners of the States to audition for Alex.

The Wolfsonian–Florida International University To Join In Association Of Art Museum Directors
Celebration Of International Museum Day On May 18, 2010
The Wolfsonian–Florida International University announced today that it will join museums around the United States in offering free gallery admission on Tuesday, May 18 as part of the Association of Art Museum Directors’ (AAMD) celebration of International Museum Day.
Participation by AAMD member museums will focus attention on the important roles that art museums serve in their communities, further showcase their remarkable collections, and increase opportunities for audiences to engage with the many educational programs art museums offer.
On this day visitors to The Wolfsonian may enjoy—in addition to the exhibitions on view—the museum’s display of works from the Page at a Time children’s program, which features handcrafted books created by students from Miami-Dade public schools as well as the display of works from the Artful Citizenship program, a language arts and social studies curriculum that uses The Wolfsonian’s collection as its primary teaching tool. The Page at a Time and the Artful Citizenship projects, which emphasize the connections between art, history, and ideas, and explore the visual power of words and images, will be on display in the lobby of The Wolfsonian Thursday May 6 through Sunday, June 6, 2010.
Every year AAMD member museums—located across the United States, Canada, and Mexico—including The Wolfsonian celebrate International Museum Day at the invitation of the International Council of Museums (ICOM). This year’s theme, “Museums for Social Harmony,†intends to raise awareness about the role of museums in teaching social harmony to the public at large. “We believe that art museums are crucial to our understanding of world history and cultures, and provide a unique and irreplaceable public service,†said Michael Conforti, president of AAMD and director of the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, MA. “AAMD is committed to exploring new ways to underscore the value of the visual arts in civic society, and we are excited that The Wolfsonian is joining with us and the global community of museums to focus on this message of public service.â€
A comprehensive list of participating AAMD member art museums will be available in the newsroom of the AAMD website. More information about ICOM’s International Museum Day can be found here.
The Page at a Time program is made possible by Carnival Foundation, with special thanks to the Miami-Dade County Public Schools.
Artful Citizenship is funded by the Children’s Trust, a dedicated source of revenue established by voter referendum to improve the lives of children and families in Miami-Dade County. With support of the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs and the Cultural Affairs Council, the Miami-Dade County and Board of County Commissioners.
About The Wolfsonian–Florida International University
The Wolfsonian is a museum, library, and research center that uses objects to illustrate the persuasive power of art and design, to explore what it means to be modern, and to tell the story of social, historical, and technological changes that have transformed our world. The collections comprise approximately 120,000 objects from the period of 1885 to 1945—the height of the Industrial Revolution to the end of the Second World War—in a variety of media including furniture; industrial-design objects; works in glass, ceramics, and metal; rare books; periodicals; ephemera; works on paper; paintings; textiles; and medals.
The Wolfsonian is located at 1001 Washington Avenue, Miami Beach, FL. Admission is $7 for adults; $5 for seniors, students, and children age 6 -12; and free for Wolfsonian members, State University System
of Florida staff and students with ID, and children under six.

Warren Henry Automobiles to host reception at Fontainebleau Miami Beach
Fisker Karma, the world’s first premium plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, will be in Miami for the first time when Warren Henry displays the Karma at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach,
4441 Collins Avenue
May 15th, beginning at 10:00 AM at the main valet entrance.
Hosted cocktail reception, 6p – 8p
RSVP to “Karma”: rsvp@warrenhenryauto.com
The event is part of a 42-city tour celebrating California-based Fisker Automotive’s new North American retail network. A full tour schedule and images are available online in the News section of www.fiskerautomotive.com
The Fisker Karma is the world’s first premium plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). It combines world-class luxury and sports car-like performance with industry-leading economy and zero tailpipe emissions.
With 403hp it can reach 60mph in six seconds and a top speed of 125mph, yet it can achieve more than 100mpg on an annual basis. The Karma has a total range of 300 miles, 50 of which are electric-only and powered by a Lithium-ion battery from A123 Systems that can be fully recharged in as little as eight hours from any electrical outlet.
The four-seat sedan was designed by Fisker Automotive CEO Henrik Fisker, who also designed the Aston Martin DB9 and BMW Z8, both of which were featured in James Bond movies.
“In building our U.S. network we selected retailers with a successful track record handling established premium brands and delivering a premium customer experience,†said Mr. Fisker.
Warren Henry Automobiles has served South Florida for more than 34 years, and has consistently been a top performer in terms of sales and service. The group consists only of luxury brands, including Land Rover, Jaguar, Infiniti, Volvo, Fisker and Lamborghini.
Warren Henry Zinn, President of Warren Henry Automobiles, comments, “We’re very excited to bring the Fisker brand to Miami. The vehicle represents everything we appreciate in a car – style, performance and advanced technology. This is one car that truly is like no other, and it is a vehicle that people will need to drive to believe!â€
Distinctive, stylish and green, the Karma is priced competitively within its segment and appeals to eco-friendly customers who don’t want to compromise their passion for driving.
Fisker Automotive created the premium plug-in hybrid segment when it introduced the Karma at the 2008 North American International Auto Show as a concept. Initial customer deliveries are expected to begin first quarter 2011. The Fisker Karma order bank already exceeds 1,600 vehicles.
In September 2009 Fisker Automotive was approved for a conditional Department of Energy loan of $528.7 million, which will go toward the development of a line of lower-priced plug-in hybrids as well as the purchase of a former GM assembly plant in Wilmington, Delaware. The company expects to create up to 5,000 direct and indirect U.S. jobs in the coming years.
For details call the Fisker Miami Personal Concierge line at: 888-616-6006 or 305-690-6006

“Motivational Music Night for the Kids” is going to be a very cool night of live music at the newly renovated Grand Beach Hotel at 4835 Collins Avenue. The event is a fund raiser for the The Motivational Edge’s summer music programs, of which Musical Missionary will hopefully play a part.
The Motivational Edge is one of Musical Missionary’s key partners. It is together with TME that Musical Missionary will be able to design and implement our own youth music programs as opposed to simply sponsoring kids in other programs. It will be a milestone for Musical Missionary to start its own youth music program, which can happen this summer with all of your support. With as little as $500, we can have our own summer class of 3 or 4 students learning how to play the keyboard and introduce them to the world of digital recording.
The more Musical Missionary supporters who come out to this event, the more money we will raise for our own youth music program this summer. Tickets are $35, which gets you dinner, 2 drinks and 4 hours of some of Miami’s best live music. There will also be cool items up for auction like hotel and cruise packages, sports memorabilia and a cash pot. A Porsche Boxster S will also be raffled off.
MOTIVATIONAL MUSIC NIGHT FOR THE KIDS 2010
Brought to you by The Motivational Edge and its non profit partners, S.U.C.S.E.S. Foundation and Nina’s Kids
Join us on May 14th 2010 and learn how to enter and win a brand new 2010 Porsche Boxster S compliments of the Danielle DeMarzo Foundation.
Come join us Friday, May 14th, 6pm-11pm at the exquisite Grand Beach Hotel on Miami Beach to support The Motivational Edge’s summer programs for underprivileged children, S.U.C.S.E.S. Foundation and Nina’s Kids. Prepare yourself for a night of exceptional musical talents as they perform under the stars with you as our guest enjoying delicious foods, beverages, specialty drinks and many more surprises! Throughout the evening you will be inspired with the musical sounds presented by students and by local superstars such as Cleaveland Jones, Local 34, Elastic Bond, Komakozie, Juan Turros of Suénalo and many more. Musical genres will range from Ska to Latin Rock and everything in between. The music will be non-stop and so will the fun and excitement! Get ready for our one of a kind Concert Fundraiser, Motivational Music Night for the Kids 2010!
You will enjoy a complimentary and savory blend of Italian and Latin food prepared by A La Fusion Catering and 2 Drink Tickets for every guest to enjoy at any time until 11pm*
