"Located at 1103 Biscayne Blvd. downtown, the art museum and art gallery is the highest-rated art gallery in Miami, boasting four stars out of 342 reviews on Yelp."

"Wynwood is a hip neighborhood just north of downtown that features a beautiful fenced enclosure of some of the freshest art available. Wynwood Walls are a group of several building facades regularly painted by commissioned artists. No matter if this is the first or 100th trip to Miami, there is always something new to photograph and see."

"Admittedly, I was a bit hesitant when we first arrived in Wynwood. After parking in an enormous lot of an industrial-looking area, I found myself wondering where all the “pretty stuff” was. It was honestly a bit overwhelming."

"Miami’s ICA(pictured above) is housed in a sparkling 37,500-square-foot building in the city’s Design District. The opening of the ambitious venue, a striking design by the Spanish firm Aranguren & Gallegos Arquitectos, was delivered a year later than originally expected, which only added to the sense of anticipation. As well as housing a must-visit permanent collection with works by Louise Bourgeois, Tracey Emin, Dan Flavin and more, it now includes a sculpture garden."

"A free contemporary arts museum, the ICA sits in the midst of the Design District and hosts a good range of contemporary exhibitions alongside its permanent collection pieces. The building, designed in 2017 by Aranguren & Gallegos architects, is especially beautiful, with its sharp geometric lines and large windows overlooking the back garden."

"Miami may feel like a party all the time, but there are plenty of museums and institutions around to give the kids a bit of education on your trip. The HistoryMiami Museum is the largest history museum in Florida and is conveniently located in downtown Miami — and it is definitely worth checking out. This Smithsonian Affiliate is home to some great local exhibits including the “Miami International Airport: A Hub for History,” “Tropical Dream: A People’s History of South Florida,” and more."

"Don’t let the museum’s rather plain Mediterranean-style building and courtyard fool you: Inside, HistoryMiami paints a colorful portrait of how the city transformed itself from a mosquito-filled swampland to one of the country’s most vibrant urban areas. Located in Miami’s downtown, the museum is not one you’ll likely stumble upon while wandering the city—which is a good thing if you prefer quieter spaces ($10/adult).

"One of the first arts organisations to open in Miami's Wynwood neighbourhood – which has gone from being almost derelict to a thriving arts and design hub, the non-profit Locus Projects(pictured above) is a mainstay of the local art scene. Founded in 1998 by the Miami-based artists Elizabeth Withstandley, Westen Charles and COOPER (the always all-caps artist name of sculptor Brian Cooper) the space invites local, national and international artists to create site-specific installations. Exhibitors have included New York-based sculptor Nancy Davidson, a video installation by Los Angeles-based artist Fern Vargas Vargas, and an immersive experience by Laura Marsh."

"Art is for all and with the same mission in mind, in 1998, three renowned artists namely Western Charles, Cooper, and Elizabeth Withstandley together created the non-profit art exhibition space in Miami the Locust Projects. Located just north of Wynwood, the Locust Projects showcase an array of contemporary art mingled with experimentation, bringing in the front the raw talents of exceptional visual artists. Inviting national and international artists, this longest-running non-profit art space also curates summer public programs, summer art intensives, and grants to local artists."

"Continue your exploration of Miami street art and mouth-watering food by driving north to Wynwood, the city’s artsy neighborhood. This up-and-coming district was nothing more than warehouses and wholesale retail stores a few years ago, but it’s now home to some of Miami’s best restaurants, trendiest bars, and most Instagrammable spots."

"Without traffic, the drive from Little Havana to Wynwood will only take 15 minutes. You may have caught a glimpse of colorful, large-scale murals while driving on I-95, but nothing can prepare you for the breathtaking art that overwhelms the Wynwood Art District just north of Downtown Miami."
