Pérez Art Museum Miami

Elliot & Erick Jiménez: El Monte is the Cuban twin photography duo’s first solo museum exhibition, marking their leap from award-winning image makers for the likes of Prada, Tiffany’s, Bad Bunny and Selena Gomez to multi-disciplinary artists on an institutional stage. Inspired by the Afro-Caribbean spiritual tradition of Lucumí and Lydia Cabrera’s seminal text El Monte, the show centers on a womb-like, chapel-meets-forest installation alongside photographs and sculptural works that explore spirituality, ancestry and identity. 

Every second Saturday of each month, Peréz Art Museum Miami opens its doors to patrons free of charge and offers a variety of family-friendly programming. For October's Hispanic Heritage Month edition, partake in a hands-on art activity on the waterfront terrace inspired by Fábulas (Mariposas y Flores) by Argentine artist Ad Minoliti, where you'll create colorful works to take home while exploring Latin American abstract art. Live performances run throughout the day, including traditional dances, drumming and more. Inside, Miami artist Aurora Molina will guide guests in weaving a large communal loom, part of her ongoing exploration of textile and fiber art traditions. While you're there, take in the museum’s latest exhibitions and waterfront views while dining at Verde. Admission is free all day. Art activities are from 11am to 3pm.
