Miami jams with the world once again by going on a design thinking adventure with the Global Sustainability Jam. The Global Sustainability Jam is a 48-hour event where people come together in cities around the globe to create and prototype new products and services around the theme of Sustainability.

Jams are about meeting cool people in your community, practicing design thinking and creative problem-solving methods, and most importantly, having fun! You will learn design-based tools and skills you can apply to your business or any project. These tools are used by Apple, IBM, and other top-notch companies to drive innovation, delight customers, and reduce risk and project costs. In addition to being a fun event, it is excellent professional development.

You don’t need to be ‘creative’ or have experience with design to Jam. In fact we encourage people without these things to join us. You’ll be supported throughout the weekend by your hosts and mentors.

Get your ticket today! Space is limited.

Miami Dade College’s (MDC) MDC Live Arts will present the U.S. debut of Combinado Argentino de Danza (CAD), Saturday, Oct. 17 at 8 p.m., at the Colony Theatre. The renegade collective of dancers, musicians, DJs, and artists from Buenos Aires create a dynamic universe—where hip-hop, contemporary and Argentine folkloric dance engage and evolve in a constant state of conversation and transformation. Ticket are $25 for the general public and $10 for MDC students.

CAD’s signature is the diversity of disciplines and styles that exist within it. Unlike other multi-disciplinary dance companies that aim for a fusion of genres, CAD instead maintains and plays with the variety of independent expressions—seeking common logic or provocative interactions within a shared space. Reflecting our contemporary, globally-influenced and culturally-expanding society, it is a salad bowl versus a melting pot, and the results are striking. Hip-hop, contemporary and folkloric dancers, from conservatory and street alike, interplay or are juxtaposed in grand compositions. Visual artists, videographers, lighting designers and the renowned DJ Villa Diamante aid in constructing the group’s intriguing atmospheres.

Zafer decides to change his life of crime and become a filmmaker when his wife, Arzu, tells him she wants to leave him. He quits his illegal activities and with 400,000 Turkish Lira decides to produce “Summits: The end of evil.” With Arzu, as the main actress, and popular TV series star Boğaç Bora in his film, a low budget, outdated screenplay and a crew with limited skills, Zafer heads off on an adventure full of humor, fun, and emotion.

This year’s parade of masqueraders includes 19 bands that have been working all year on their portrayals and costume designs. #MiamiCarnival was voted one of the top 100 events in South Florida by Bizbash.

The city’s warm weather, palm trees and melting pot of cultures truly makes Miami the ideal destination to host the annual #MiamiCarnival celebration. This year, #MiamiCarnival celebrates 31 years of carnival celebration and Antigua’s 60 years of Carnival. Carnival is a staple tradition of the Caribbean heritage that contributes to the arts, music, history and cultural identity of Caribbean and Caribbean-American people. Miami Broward Carnival is the last major North American event on the carnival circuit leading up to Trinidad and Tobago Carnival in 2016.

“The Miami Broward Carnival is among Miami’s most popular and exciting multicultural events featuring the rich Caribbean culture of our community,” says Greater Miami Convention & Visitor Bureau President & CEO William D. Talbert, III, CDME. “We are delighted to welcome once again the many visitors who travel to Greater Miami to enjoy this spectacular event along with the extraordinary offerings of our destination.”

“As a leading carrier in South Florida and with one-third of our network in Latin America and the Caribbean, we are delighted to support the Miami Broward Carnival and this great display of Caribbean culture. We are all about connecting people to family and friends. We are excited to honor this annual tradition,” says Nicole Tesser, Manager, Regional Marketing, JetBlue.

“I’m definitely no stranger to the stage at Miami Carnival, originally performing some years ago with my group Crossovah. Whenever I touch the stage for Miami Carnival, it feels comfortable, feels like home,” says Ricardo Dru (Son of the Caribbean). “Obviously this time it’s a little different, being a solo act and coming off such a successful year. When it comes to my performance, the people can expect a lot of fun and energy. I want the public to feel a part of the performance like we are on stage together and give me the same energy I’m giving to them.”

Grand Marshalls for the parade: Sharissa Ryan-Ms. Jaycees Queen-Ms. Montserrat Queen, Miami Broward Carnival Queen 2015.

Sushi Maki to unveil a sushi menu rich with South Florida’s bounty of seafood, produce and local brews

Austin Chef Philip Speer and Sushi Maki continue their culinary collaboration

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – Sushi Maki (sushimaki.com) commemorates 15 years as one of the leading home grown brands Thursday by celebrating the produce and seafood synonymous with South Florida.

Under the leadership of founder and CEO Abe Ng, and in collaboration with guest Chef Philip Speer, Sushi Maki will unveil a series of menu changes that reflect a deeper commitment to sustainable seafood and a focus on in-season, fresh-farm produce.

“Our featured menu items will be lighter and brighter in flavors with more use of vegetables and fruits paired with our best-in-class seafood,” says Ng. “Our customers will see simple plate presentations accented with clean and crisp sauces and garnishes.”

Sushi Maki expanded its partnership with South Florida fishermen, brewers and farmers, culling only the best for its menu of freshly prepared and artfully plated Japanese fare. The new menu will feature fresh yellowtail snapper, Florida lobster, Florida avocados along with in-season fruits and vegetables from Homestead farms and brews from Daughters Brewing Co., Islamorada Beer Company and Gravity Brew Labs.

“We’ve added yellowtail snapper and cobia, which you won’t find on many sushi bar menus,” says Ng.  “Plus, we’ve been serving avocados grown in farms in Homestead about eight months out of the year. We believe strongly in taking full advantage of the rich bounty we have here in Florida.” 

Sushi Maki’s refined menu evolved out of an emerging friendship and collaboration with Chef Speer, widely known in culinary circles for his work at Uchi in Austin, Texas. Chef Speer teamed up with the Sushi Maki culinary team to develop a summer menu pairing local seafood and citrus. Creations such as Japanese Street Corn, Lychee Grape Tiradito and Cobia Chirashi were customer favorites that are now part of the Sushi Maki menu.

“Chef Speer’s individual journey of renewal, health and wellness aligns perfectly with the positive vibes/ healthier lives we celebrate here at Sushi Maki,” Ng said.

Sushi Maki will introduce its new menu at its five full-service restaurants starting Oct. 5. The Coral Gables-based-chain plans to release the new items at its locations in Whole Foods Markets, sports arenas and other locations by spring 2016. 

“We’re so fortunate to have a variety of places in town to share the goodness of sushi. We’re excited to be able to imagine and creative incredible recipes, and share them with so many people through new and unexpected places,” says Ng.

Despite the menu changes, Sushi Maki will keep many of the favorites customers have grown to love like the ceviche bowls introduced earlier this year, traditional rolls and sashimi.

“And if customers don’t see a favorite on the new menu, all they have to do is ask for it,” says Ng.

David Dermer, former Miami Beach’s mayor will give a lecture on the politics of development in Miami Beach 1995-2005, focusing on the Save Miami Beach movement and his efforts battling big money to try to limit development on Miami Beach.

David Dermer Bio:
On September 9, 2005, Miami Beach Mayor David Dermer was returned to office for a third and final term. Dermer was the second youngest mayor in city history when first elected to the post in 2001 at age 38. Only his father, former Miami Beach Mayor Jay Dermer was younger, when he was elected mayor in 1967.
Prior to becoming Mayor, David Dermer also served a successful 4-year term as a Miami Beach City Commissioner. A dedicated community activist and attorney, Dermer first emerged onto the Miami Beach political scene as the leader of the successful “Save Miami Beach” (SMB) ballot initiative, a movement aimed at curbing overdevelopment along the City’s waterfront. Dermer’s grassroots organization gathered more than 6000 voter signatures, placing the charter amendment on the ballot. The SMB campaign won over voters and the initiative passed overwhelmingly, despite the fact that SMB’s opposition spent $2 million to Dermer’s $25,000.

Drew was a Golden Buzzer Winner and the 1st Runner Up on America’s Got Talent Season 10 in 2015. He has also been a Celebrity Guest on Dr. Oz.

#ThankYouMiami for Fashion – Design and Film Superstars in the Magic City

In Miami we have a stellar pool of locals from which to be inspired and learn but one of the other perks of living in the Magic City is its access to top notch talent from abroad. Whether its the influx of world renown artists during Art Basel, DJs during Miami Music Week, or designers during Miami Swim Week, we have an inordinate amount of access to superstars and, thereby, inspiration. For a “normal week”—that is, a non-themed week—last week saw a heavy influx of celebrity talent. We were particularly excited that three of these individuals, known for their accomplishments in design or film, shook up the style conversation while in our sunny shores.

Gia Coppola is recognized for her filmmaking genius. Last week she sent a sliver of that genius down to Miami on her behalf in the form of Boccaccio ’70, the last film of a personally-curated series of classic Italian pictures that also traveled to New York and LA this summer. For the final installment of the Gia Coppola x Peroni Nastro Azzurro Grazie Cinema Series, Miami tastemakers gathered at the Miami Beach Edition to munch on hors d’oeuvres, sip on Peroni, and relish in Italian creativity. The breezy evening spent under the Miami stars became as much a muse for those gathered as the film itself.

Meanwhile, at Jade Brickell, Mexican designer Kris Goyri made his Miami debut with a private sale organized by fellow Mexican and marketing guru, Polina Panopoulos. At the event, Goyri presented his Spring/Summer and Fall Winter 2015 collections, as well as introduced exclusive pieces from his 2016 collection. “I love to make women feel beautiful, sexy, and unique,” said Goyri. “Coming to Miami made me discover a cosmopolitan woman that is looking to stand out.” Now, with his elegant, fresh, and beautiful designs at our reach (he is hoping to be back in November), we can.

The star-studded week concluded at the Fontainebleau, where celebrity designer Diann Valentine hosted a meet and greet at Modern Luxury Bride South Florida and The Caribbean‘s Afternoon of Bridal Luxury event. During a gourmet sit-down luncheon, local brides were treated to a keynote speech in which Valentine highlighted bridal trends and talked about celebrating the uniqueness of each love story. Valentine also gave the brides a sneak peek of the new collection of her signature “Valentine cuff“. Rest assured, the upcoming wedding season will be one worth watching.

Miami Broward One Carnival Host Committee Inc. presents Junior Carnival Parade of Jr. Mas Bands, Junior Kings & Queens, Female and Male Individuals Parade & Competitions. Young masqueraders will compete based on their creativity, presentation and craftsmanship in their vibrant and colorful masquerade costumes celebrating Caribbean culture. Performances by: The Juggernaut Band and Lauderhill Encore Performing Arts Center and the 2014 Steelband Panorama winners Pantastik and 2013 winner Silver Stars.

South Florida’s youth will have an opportunity to proudly show off they’re wonderfully created and colorful costumes in celebration of their rich Caribbean culture this carnival season. Over 350 young children will participate in the Miami Broward, Jr. Carnival parade and competition on Sunday, October 4, 2015 at Central Broward Park (3700 NW 11th Place, Lauderhill, FL 33311). Gates open at 12:30 p.m. and the parade begins at 2 p.m. Parking fee is $1.50 per adult and admission into the event is $10. Kids under 10 years old are free.

This annual Caribbean inspired family event fosters artistic development and creative freedom, all while inspiring young people to take up the torch of Carnival tradition and carry it high. Young masqueraders will be judged based on their creativity, presentation, originality and craftsmanship of their vibrant and colorful masquerade costumes.

“We are looking forward to a safe and successful Junior Carnival this year as we continue to promote and sustain the culture of the Caribbean people,” says Rose Kelly, Bandleader of Heritage TnT, Jr. Carnival band. “The youths are the future of our Carnival, so we hope to bring more awareness of our culture to them.”

The event encourages young Caribbean-Americans to embrace and celebrate their Caribbean culture by participating in an age-old island tradition. Miami Broward Jr. Carnival is also one of the symbols of diversity and inclusion as there are non-Caribbean children of various backgrounds that also participate in the parade and festivities.

“Although we are second and third generation West Indians, this is our culture. Its longevity depends on the positive inclusion of the children. They are the ones who will carry the torch and ensure that our Carnival never dies,” says Giselle d ’Wassi One, Bandleader for Wassi Babes Jr. Carnival.

Sponsors include;Chubby,Dr. Dominique Lewis,Julian Cameron,Pieter Hendrichus

Miami Women Who Rock (MWWR) will host the 2nd annual “Fifty Shades of Pink” Awards Luncheon in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month on Wednesday, October 21, 11:30 am at the Coral Gables Country Club. Miami Women Who Rock is a network of women and businesses who support health‐related causes and initiatives.

The event will honor 10 exceptional and diverse women for their strength, resilience, compassion and commitment to their families and the Miami community. A portion of proceeds from the event will benefit The Women’s Breast & Heart Health Initiative, Florida Affiliate, that connects at‐risk women with the early detection necessary to fight breast cancer and heart disease, and which was founded by one of MWWR’s 2014 notable honorees, Andrea Ivory.

Miami Women Who Rock will present a “Lifetime Achievement Award” to famous Cuban Song Writer and Latin Grammy Artist, Concha Valdes Miranda. MWWR is proud to announce the amazing 2015 Award recipients who will be honored at the “Fifty Shades of Pink” Awards Luncheon. Congratulations to the honorees with their respective categories: Gloria Barbier (Determination ), Linda Burrowes (Pink Warrior), C.L. Conroy, (Trailblazer), Maria Freed (Advocate), Pilar Montes (Integrity), Elena Linares (Empowerment), Detra Shaw-Wilder (Impact), and Norma Trabanco, (Community Involvement).

MWWR was established in 2007 by Emily Zubizarreta, a Miami businesswoman who built a thriving career in international business and leadership development. She created MWWR to serve as a platform to help other women succeed in business, as well as to honor women who are making a difference in the community. “We have evolved tremendously since our first awards event in 2008 and are thrilled to introduce several new categories this year ranging from the “Lifetime Achievement Award” to the “Pink Warrior Award,” said Zubizarreta.

“Because breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in women, the ‘Fifty Shades of Pink’ Awards Luncheon is the embodiment of MWWR’s global vision with a local mission. Our signature events are where heels and hearts meet to benefit imperative women’s health initiatives,” she said.

Event Sponsors include FirstBank Florida, Miami Herald, South Florida Luxury Guide, Kozyak, Tropin & Throckmorton, Mattia College, Razzledazzle Barbershop and Reality Check Legal Solutions.

Building on more than a quarter century of leadership, Florida Foster Care Review will host its 10th Annual Claws for Kids Luncheon at Joe’s Stone Crab to promote the safety, well-being and long-term success of children, youth and young adults in Miami-Dade’s foster care system. Attended by more than 300 guests, this signature event is expected to raise $100,000 in crucial funds. Highlights include a wine reception with top Miami civic and community leaders, as well as raffle prizes that include travel, leisure, restaurant and cultural experiences.

Established in 1989 by a United Way committee, Florida Foster Care Review recruits and trains community volunteers who review the cases of youth in foster care to ensure they are safe and receiving needed services. Together with child welfare professionals, Florida Foster Care Review also works to ensure that children and youth leaving the foster care system have someone to call family. Whether connecting a child with tutoring, medical care, counseling, transitional housing, or simply the chance to experience normal childhood activities, Florida Foster Care Review has not only improved the lives of abused and neglected children, in some cases it has saved them. This year, Florida Foster Care Review’s Citizen Review Panel conducted 804 review hearings for 573 children – nearly twice as many as last year. In all its programming, Florida Foster Care Review tracks and analyzes outcomes in order to advocate for system changes that improve children’s lives.

#ThankYouMiami for Fashion – Standout Style Moments of Summer

Thank-You-Miami-For-Fashion-Standout-Summer-Style-Title

It is with great sadness that we remind you Summer 2015 ended yesterday. And, while meteorologically this means little in the Sunshine State, there’s something about the official start of Fall that messes with Miami’s carefree summer vibe. Save for the last few weeks, this summer was a fantastic one for us. In June, we explored Miami, refining our itineraries of free things to do around Miami and for discovering Miami in under 24 hours to arm ourselves for visitors during the busy season. In July, we bonded with bloggers in Miami and beyond while covering Miami Swim Week and got to interview Sharleen Ernster during the release of her debut collection. August brought us to a triumphant close of the season as we moved into our new office at WeWork.

We are grateful for all these memorable milestones but we would be remiss to overlook the standout style moments that accompanied them. Check out our top 3 (all of which happened during Miami Swim Week because…le duh!), then share with us your favorite in the comments below or by sending us a tweet @ThankYouMiami!

1. 90s Rocker Chic at Miami Swim Week: Same Swim.
One of our favorite fashion bloggers, Shea Marie of Peace Love Shea, previewed her debut swimwear line at the Miami Beach Edition’s Sandbox this summer. Inspired by the return of the 90s, we stepped out for the occasion in a Ramones bodycon dress from Boohoo, a denim jacket from American Eagle, and a sparkly choker and super high lug sole platform sandals from Forever 21. The outfit as a whole was a huge win…until we arrived to the Sandbox and struggled to stand in our heels. Note to self: if a Miami invitation says an event will be held in a sandbox, it’s in an actual sandbox.

2. Mermaid Vibes at Miami Swim Week: Lolli Swim.
As true Miami girls, we are obsessed with everything ocean, palm trees, and summer – you know, the mermaid essentials. Based on their 2016 BESTIES collection, which previewed at a summer soirée at the Miami Beach Edition, Lolli gets us. The collection tells a story about besties who drift through long summer days of sunshine making magical memories together. Okay, so we haven’t worn any of the pieces from this collection yet but we are OBSESSED with this palm tree one-piece and bet you’ll be seeing us in it soon. What better way to keep the summer alive in the coming months?

3. Old Florida Flare at Miami Swim Week: Akai, Alexibella, and Siempre Golden Brunch.
This trip down standout summer style memory lane would not be complete without a “So Miami” look, the best of which we sported to brunch with our friends of Akai, Alexibella, and Siempre Golden at Seagrape in the Thompson Miami. Inpsired by Seagrape’s old Florida vibes, we donned Free People’s 100 degree dress (A/K/A the dress of the summer), a fedora from Forever 21 (similar here), and Aldo Gimello sneakers. It was one of the best outfits we put together and fit the setting seamlessly.

Identity Crisis: Miami Beach during Turbulent Years, 1975 – 1985 10/6/15

The decade from the mid-1970’s to the mid-1980’s was a turbulent time for Miami Beach. Its best years as a glamorous vacation destination and Hollywood hot spot were behind it. The sun-and-fun formula that had delivered so much since the end of World War II had grown stale as new competitors like Disney World and the Caribbean drew tourists that had once flocked to the Beach. The city also faced overlapping demographic crises with a rapidly aging population in South Beach battered by inflation and an unexpected influx of poor immigrants during the Mariel boatlift.

In the midst of this turmoil, an alternative approach to development emerged in the most unlikely of places: South Beach, the center of the crisis. Historic preservation of Art Deco architecture offered an unexpected new vision to compete with the fading formulas of the past. It was during this tumultuous period that a battle for the city’s identity commenced, pitting big developers against scrappy preservationists, generating controversial images in television and film, and setting the stage for the remaking of Miami Beach.
