Top Downtown Miami Venues

Olympia Center Inc. is a non-profit cultural arts organization that produces and presents Performing Arts, Visual Arts, History & Humanities programming to audiences in Downtown Miami and throughout South Florida

Meetinghouse is a 5,000 square foot exhibition and event space in the penthouse of the 1920s Historic Huntington Building. Featuring double-height, 14-foot ceilings, original windows with exceptional views of Downtown Miami, polished concrete floors and a full kitchen. It can seat 350 people, 450 standing. ​Meetinghouse is an interdisciplinary artistic and cultural space located in the historic Huntington building in downtown Miami. Inspired by past artist cooperatives such as Roycroft, Bauhaus, and the Shakers, we were founded in 2014 to further the discovery, dialog and expression across disciplines.Our programming includes exhibitions, lectures, screenings, performances, and printed materials and catalogs, bringing together local, national and international artists and designers based on shared processes and concepts observed in their works. A current event being hosted is Retreat and Relocation: A Colloquium on Climate Migration. Artists described the event in this way: As the land shifts, quakes, and floods with increasing frequency, it is evident that current modes of adaptation and mitigation are increasingly short-lived. Given the reality of time-limited approaches, as well as eventual reductions in both geography and investment, the Colloquium will consider retreat as a viable spatial alternative, with consideration of what is needed for design and policy to accommodate this possibility. Understanding that engineering and design models have established a leading theme for the last decade of discussion and planning in relation to climate change responses across communities, this Colloquium seeks to expand this framework to engage in a discussion of retreat applying a community-based focus. A panel discussion will provide an introduction to global strategies and policy analysis, and a facilitated discussion will enable local leaders to discuss applications in their own communities. The goal of this gathering is to open avenues of collaboration to explore new opportunities to evaluate conditions and impacts, and develop proactive strategies for facilitating retreat. Meetinghouse also hosts pop up events. ​On August 19th, meetinghouse and Ground Control Miami activated a three-day pop-up shop to support future programming, as well as bringing some summer revenue to the participating artists. Their goal was to support the scene by collaborating with the local artists and to create the financial means to produce cutting-edge exhibitions, performances, and publications with no costs to the artists or audience.

Historic Virginia Key Beach Park occupies a singular place in Miami history. Established in 1945 as Miami-Dade County's only beach designated for Black residents during segregation, the park was closed in 1982 and sat dormant for more than two decades before a community-led restoration effort brought it back. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2002 and reopened in 2008 following a $30 million renovation, the park today serves as both a public destination and a working event venue on the shores of Biscayne Bay. The park offers a broad range of rentable settings — from intimate shaded pavilions seating up to 150 guests to expansive open-air areas accommodating festivals and concerts of several thousand. The colorful Chickee Village, beachfront spaces, and lawn areas each offer a distinct character suited to weddings, family reunions, corporate retreats, and community gatherings. The restored historic carousel and the park's natural mangrove landscape provide a backdrop that few South Florida venues can match. Outside vendors and catering are permitted. Events requiring permits — including alcohol service — are supported through the park's Special Events team, which coordinates the full permitting process with the City of Miami.

I was born in Israel in July of 1971. I never imagined having my lifetime passion as an actual career. I have enjoyed a varied and successful career in business, real estate and banking; converting several ideas into living companies and products. After 20 years of mainstream existence, I took my passion out of the basement. “ManySkin” was a last minute exhibition during Miami Art Basel 2015, and was an expose of ‘difference in same’. Display fashion mannequins were provided to several artists (photographers, painters, sculptors, graffiti artists) and the only guideline was to cover the lifeless, sexy bodies with anything but clothes. The resulting exhibition, shown at the LAAM Latin America Art Museum and supported by Gary Nader, was a travel through society and beauty. It proved to be an exciting experience for artist and patrons alike. Scenario Gallery has also encouraged and supported my first commercial solo exhibition and showing of my collection. ​ The magic of color and its monotone desire to morph and blend is a gift I enjoy more than anything. A timeline of my artwork from my first painting 20 years ago, to the recent pieces in this collection show a true growth and change. Just as in life, as experiences collect, the highs and lows impact, and the self slowly and uniquely becomes the now. ​ ​Shortly After Miami Art Basel week I went to Israel to visit my children and during New Years Eve I spent the night playing with fire and Photography, the outcome was magical. ​ Today all I want to do is create! Create is beauty with love. I bless every piece with the word Amen, as I humbly know that while the creations may have come from my hands, it is the guidance of the light that allows me to reflect into my art the wave movement that you see on my final pieces. That is what inspires me and allows me to continue to express how I feel through my creations. This is the home for Wynwood artists to display their art. This space was designed around the energy of four words that guide and inspire the artist being Create Art Love and Fashion. This 2700sf gallery also serves as an event venue for up to 220 people. It lends its unique chic character and creative energy to fashion shows, private dinners, charity events, and private celebrations. The gallery is also home to a boutique which displays unique jewelry, fashion items and pieces of decorative art.

The 126 rooms of the hotel feature luxurious spaces, where the comfort of modern facilities merges with an inspiring design. The soft and warm lights, the oak floors with 1920's spike design and the vintage touch of the walls' motifs are complemented by state-of-the-art amenities that are integrated with the rest of the elements as part of the decoration. The wide range of services offered by the Eurostars Langford makes staying at the hotel a unique experience.
