Miami City Ballet x Lincoln Road Celebrating 35 years as Miami’s ballet company, Miami City Ballet dancers are heading back to where it all started — on Lincoln Road in a new pop-up studio space! For more than three decades, Miami City Ballet has played a vital and leading role in the rich tapestry of Miami’s cultural and artistic scene. To commemorate their 35th Anniversary, MCB dancers are training where it all began — on Lincoln Road in a new pop-up studio space. The iconic Lincoln Road was MCB’s original studio location and home in 1986, a place where the community still recalls some of the company’s earliest memories. Everyone is welcome to pop by 744 Lincoln Road, corner of Meridian Avenue, to catch a glimpse of the extraordinary MCB dancers as they train and practice (while observing safe social distancing rules), and view window displays of dazzling costumes from some of MCB’s most splendid and seminal productions.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT Idioms and Taxonomies at Oolite Arts Idioms and Taxonomies is an exhibition by Oolite artists-in-residence whose practices investigate the dual roles of personal and cultural histories. Conversations about how to depict subjects, protect cultural heritage, preserve architectural memory, and reflect upon diaspora are all present considerations. Curated by Laura Marsh, the works conflate historical and contemporary points of reference, and their nuanced messages implore viewers to examine their relationships to space, community, and isolation. Watch the exhibition walk-through here >
