In Short
This museum delivers a sense of discovery via its traveling exhibits which revolve around the history, cultures, folk life and archaeology of South Florida and the Caribbean. Exhibits, such as "Maps of Cuba" and "Tobacco Art," span prehistoric time to the present. The museum also permanently collects rare archives, photographs, pictures, objects and artifacts relating to native Miccosukee, Seminole, and Tequesta Indians, as well as immigrant communities like Cubans, Haitians, Bahamians and Nicaraguans. Items like a Florida Marlins baseball cap represent the pop culture of the community.
The Details on Miami Art Museum
Party Pioneers:
The museum's young fundraising group, the Tropical Pioneers, or "Tropees," are known for their popular fundraisers, like the annual Limo Rally—a scavenger hunt in which revelers stop at various bars and perform challenges.
Know Before You Go:
If you hate Downtown traffic or parking garages, just hop on Metrorail or the free Metromover. The museum is just in front of the Government Center exit.
