A juried, contemporary art fair in the heart of Miami’s Performing Arts District featuring an international slate of artists and galleries. It’s where contemporary meets extraordinary. Join us for a 5-day fine art experience, featuring music, entertainment and other special events. Spectrum Miami will take place in the Arts & Entertainment District, alongside Red Dot Art Fair. Taking place during the powerhouse Miami Art Week with top crowd-pulling shows like Art Basel, Art Miami, Scope, and Miami Project, Spectrum provides dealers with access to thousands of innovative works and brings top talent to Miami’s arts-friendly district right between Midtown and Downtown. Each December, art lovers flock to Art Week Miami by the thousands. In an interview with CBS Miami last December, West Palm Beach art dealer Ryan Ross said, “It’s just non-stop traffic from start to finish…. [There’s] a real positive, positive thing going on and lots of money being spent in the fine art sector right now.” With every passing year, there are more and more art-fueled events, ancillary fairs, parties, dinners, and VIP previews during Art Week Miami. Last year, Art Week Miami drew in 100,000 attendees, and Spectrum Miami will benefit from its location—right next to Red Dot Art Fair and in close proximity to Art Miami and CONTEXT.”
