A Brickell and Downtown Miami guide to the best events surrounding Miami Art Week and Art Basel Miami Beach 2016.
Museum Park
Spanish artist Juan Garaizabal is installing Havana’s Balcony (Balcón de la Habana) in Downtown’s Museum Park.

Biscayne Bay
If you looked up at the night sky and saw a giant rainbow across Biscayne Bay, your eyes weren’t playing tricks on you. That’s the #RitzRainbow, the Miami edition of Yvette Mattern’s Global Rainbow, a laser light installation produced by Lionheart Capital. #RitzRainbow will arch above Miami until Saturday, December 3, 3016.
Various Locations
Miami Dade College’s Steve Parker has composed a series of live performances featuring unexpected and urbanized items. Dubbed Traffic Jam (MDC Live Arts media image featured above), bikes, cars, trucks and more will pop-up in undisclosed locations and create streetside sounds. The surprise scenarios will take place from November 30, 2016, to December 3, 2016. That Saturday will also feature a finale event at the MDC parking lot on Biscayne Boulevard between NE 5th & 6th Street. Watch more here.
