Miami Design District
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Miami Design District is a neighborhood north of Midtown in Miami, Florida within the southern extremity of Little Haiti neighborhood. It is divided by NE 36th Street to the south, NE 41st Street to the north, North Miami Avenue to the west and Biscayne Boulevard (US 1) to the east.
It is home to more than fifteen art galleries and over forty showrooms & stores. Every 2nd Saturday of each month a community wide Art & Design Night is held from 7-10pm. A popular event, Art Galleries and Design Showrooms open their doors to the public for music and refreshments.[1]
Wynwood is home to over forty galleries, five museums, three collections, seven art complexes, twelve art studios and five art fairs. Every 'Second Saturday' of each month a community wide 'Art Walk' is held from 7-11pm. A popular event, galleries, art studios, alternative spaces and showrooms alike open their doors to the public for art, music and refreshments.
Credited to starting the district is Craig Robbins, who purchased many run-down buildings in the 18 square block area and persuaded many top designers, such as Alison Spear, Holly Hunt and Peter Page to relocate.[2]
