Best Arts and Culture Places in The Keyhole

"Relocated in the Museum Park of Downtown Miami in 2013, the popular Perez Art Museum Miami, also known as PAMM, is a confluence of culture and art at its best. Designed by the reputed architectural firm Herzog & De Meuron, Perez Art Museum Miami is a three-floored gallery consisting of art displays from Latin America to Africa to the Caribbean. Founded in 1984, earlier PAMM was regarded as the Centre for Fine Arts which continues to collect contemporary artworks of the 20th and 21st centuries."

"Once upon a time, Miami's place for modern art downtown was known as the Miami Art Museum. It was a well-sized museum adjacent to the Government Center and was a mish mash of contemporary and modern art from around the world. But in 2013, the former MAM outgrew its old home and was transported to a waterfront lot that, in conjunction with the soon-to-be-open Patricia and Phillip Frost Science Museum, would become Museum Park."
