Under the direction of Executive Artistic Director Carson Kievman, Mystery Park Arts has been involved in the creation, production, and recording of contemporary music, multi-media, and performing arts from Miami and the Caribbean to New York City and Europe. Since returning to South Florida, Dr. Kievman has focused the organization on the potential -and, equally important, the long-term need - to support quality arts education in the incipient arts districts of Miami and Miami Beach. SoBe Music Institute (SMI) was developed with a mission to promote literacy and excellence in music and related artistic disciplines, with a commitment to the highest caliber of instruction and the sustained development of creativity and cultural life within the city and region. In little over two full years of year-round operation, SMI has made remarkable strides towards developing high-caliber music education and performance events for youth, adults, and the general public: • Our premiere faculty brings together over 30 professional musicians from leading conservatories and performance ensembles across the US, Europe, Latin America, and Asia, and our advisory board includes representation from many of the area's major performing arts organizations; • Our summer and after-school Music for Youth programs have made quality instruction available to hundreds of talented youth, from the parks of Miami to the Carl Fisher Clubhouse in Miami Beach, regardless of socio-economic status; • Our After-Work Music classes and individual lessons invite adults (and advanced youth) to exercise creativity and progress towards artistic excellence, at modest cost and under expert guidance; • Our free Open Fridays and the new Music Unites! cultural series are drawing the public to experience virtuoso or ensemble performances, multimedia educational presentations, and participatory family events; a T-:Iisto.ric Carl Fisher C~ubhoi~se 4 Z tt}0 ~~-zsl:ii.ri~;t<>n .\~~e:ttue= f .~:tiarr~.i .I3eac]:x, FBI... 3313t> 'T'el: 3~>-b7~-922G • .irzfol.~rDrn.~~sterzl~s~rkans.ar~, t ti~;~~=vs-.triyst~r~P<~~•krrts.~rg __...~.... __._._...__......___......__..._._ ...............__._...__....._...w_......_......... MYSTERY PARK ARTS COMPANY • SORE MUSIC INSTTTLTTE :~ SQ1 {c) (3} No'r-Fox-P[~ori~r Airs ,t 'vv Evr-c:~~i'tc~~ C~xc:~viz:~'f'ro • Our community outreach ranges from school-based programs, like Edison High's Urban Education Pact, to special performances such as Miami Beach's Arts in the Parks, seniors programs, or benefit events, and youth performances such as the Children's Trust concert at the Arsht Center. Through these components -and others that may evolve - we seek to build an arts education institute that serves a dynamic and diverse community, creating new possibilities at the cultural heart of South Florida. Our unique blend of high-end artistic programs and a welcoming community environment is, in many ways, a perfect fit for the historic Carl Fisher Clubhouse and for Miami Beach's new cultural arts district. • As an historic asset, the scale and charm of Miami Beach's oldest public building are displayed to full advantage by SMI performance events that create a casual, intimate ambiance. Acoustically, the main chamber is well suited to virtuoso and small-scale chamber works, for SMI professionals and for students. It also is a fine space for multimedia lectures and films. • As a public facility, the community music school regularly fills not only the main chamber but individual classroom space with educational uses - day and night, after-school and after-work, including weekends. • As a community amenity, SMI not only subsidizes high-quality youth programs - all participants are subsidized, with full and partial scholarships available to a majority of youth -but provides a growing array of free events that serve the entire community, young and old. • As part of a newly declared arts district, SMI's broad educational mission creates an accessible place where diverse artists can join together creatively and share their talents with the community, via classes or lessons, performances or presentations. We view music and arts education as essential needs in a vibrant arts district. SMI is designed to complement the city's major arts institutions and cultural vision, and in doing so provides diverse and non-intimidating opportunities for the public to enhance its experience and understanding of the art world.

Our goal is to continue providing exceptional music education programs, including youth programs at free or reduced cost, and making quality culture easily available to those who would otherwise not be able to afford it. We believe that an emphasis on free public events and youth scholarships serves our entire community; indeed, over 2 of 3 youth participants presently meet low-income criteria for full or partial scholarships based on financial need. Please note that more detailed documentation of programs has been provided to the City throughout the year, as required for the temporary use and extension of the Carl Fisher Clubhouse lease. PROGRAMMING, HOURS, AND TARGETED POPULATIONS With the exception of performance events or series, the proposed hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 7 PM. Private lessons are also available on Saturdays. Current performance events are scheduled for Friday evenings on a weekly basis and Saturday mornings on a monthly basis; new events or series may expand these hours. Music for Youth summer and after-school programs. "Every student in the nation should have an education in the arts."' This universal declaration, endorsed by the ten leading voices for education in the United States, confirms the essential and well-documented role of the arts for individual development. 1 "The Value and Quality of Arts Education: A Statement of Principles," endorsed by the American Association of School Administrators; American Federation of Teachers; Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development; Council for Basic Education; Council of Chief State School Officers; National Association of Elementary School Principals; National Association of Secondary School Principals; National Education Association; National Parent Teacher Association; National School Board Association (www.menc.org/information/prekl2/principl.html). 7 l:-:listo.ric' Carl Fisl7.er C~`lubhc~t~se s 21.()0 ~?~%as.lX.i.ra~;tc>ra lti-c:t~uc~ i ~~I.iai'rzi .13eac:IX_ FI.., 33139 'I"cl: ,3G:~-fi74-922G • it.~fc~l.~nr~~tercl~<;rlrarts.org # ti~~~w.Y~.iysteryP<ir-l~;rts.org ~9 .l 3~P MYSTERY PARK ARTS COMPANY # SORE MUSIC INSTITUTE :~ 501 (c} (3} No't'-Fox-I'xOrt'r AxTS ANI7 EDLC:1'I"log L~RC~A:NI2:4'I'10' Music education programs have been shown to result in documented gains in four categories of personal development: ^ Success in school due to transferable study skills and enhanced self- esteem; ^ Success in developing intelligence (abstract reasoning, spatial-temporal skills, sustained attention skills, and sequence learning), as well as self- expression and physical dexterity; ^ Success in society, broadening students' understanding and appreciation of the world around them;" and • Success in life, including skills of self-discipline, collaboration, communication, and creativity, as well as mental health benefits.2 The SMI curriculum generally covered the National Standards for Music Education for the appropriate age group. Learning objectives are based on Florida's own Sunshine State Standards for Music according to grade level. The curriculum is flexible and suited to children's diverse learning abilities, to accommodate a variety of proficiency levels, previous experience and knowledge of music. The program's teaching philosophy encompasses 'best practices' based on educational psychology theories such as intrinsic and achievement-based motivation, learning by doing, active learning strategies, modeling, autonomy and edutainment. The Music for Youth programs follow best education practices to serve children ages 6-11 years old and teenagers ages 12-18 years old. The summer program is designed as a comprehensive music immersion program operating over eight weeks (or two four-week sessions); the program operates from 3 PM to 6 PM each weekday, with three afternoons for younger students (9 hours weekly) and two afternoons for teens (6 hours weekly). The program was adapted to the after-school setting, structured as fall, winter, and spring sessions for two afternoons per week, each 1 '/z hours. Each class is structured to include both instrumental instruction and musical theory and vocal lessons. This program introduces musical principles based on voice, guitar, piano, flute, violin, cello, trumpet or saxophone provided by our highly professional music instructors z See National Association for Music Education, www.menc.org/information/advocate/facts.html. 6 i-:listo.rzc Carl Fisl7.er C~.ubhouse t 2101) ti~•,xslrax~a€;tcan .\ti e:tiiac: • ~,:tia~ra.i 13c°ac:]:r.

Additionally, the younger children interact with computer software to learn music composition and music appreciation and to strengthen listening skills. Private Lessons. An essential part of any musical learning process is the one-on- one interaction with a qualified and inspirational instructor. Individual private lessons are offered for adults and for youth who seek to advance more rapidly than is possible in group lessons alone. Lesson plans are organized by the individual instructor with the specific needs of individual student in mind. Lessons are generally once a week for 30 minutes, 45 minutes, or one hour, although more than one lesson a week can be arranged. Lesson times vary slightly; for example composition/theory tends to last longer by nature than a voice lesson, which requires more physical exertion. Our instructors are inspiring teachers as well as excellent musicians, and make every effort to make each lesson a creative, enjoyable and rewarding experience. Group Lessons (After-Work Music and youth groups). Group lessons and workshops are an excellent complement to private lessons, giving students the opportunity to play with other students and apply what they learn in private lessons. Classes and workshops generally operate for five 10-week terms per year, meeting once a week in the evenings or on Saturdays. Enrollment is typically limited to six participants per class. After-Work Music is designed to serve the needs of adults, but group classes can also meet the needs of teens and children who seek group instruction in other instruments or at times not available in the standard after-school program. Open Fridays. SMI proposes to continue its program of weekly music events on Friday evenings, open to the public and completely free of charge (generally 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM). In 2007-08, SMI initiated a survey of Western art music from the Renaissance to the 21st Century, along with multimedia lectures focused on 20th-century master composers.

Faculty and guest artists are professional musicians who play with groups such as Miami City Ballet Orchestra, the New World Symphony and other ensembles. Events are followed by refreshments and a chance to mingle with the artists. Programs in 2008-09 will reflect a comparable diversity of styles and time periods, but will be organized by themes exploring the relationship between music and other art forms. Music from different periods or styles may thus be featured on a single program that highlights distinct approaches to common ideas. The proposed themes for next season include: o Music F~ Theater o Music £~ Dance o Music £~ Literature (to be coordinated with Miami Book Fair International, Nov. 2008) o Music ~ Visual Arts (to be coordinated with Art Basel, Dec. 2008) o Music £~ Film (to be coordinated with Miami International Film Festival, Feb. 2009) o Music of Transcendence (exploring spiritual dimensions of music from medieval to modern times) As in the current year, each of the musical themes identified above will be explored in three types of Open Friday events: o Art Speaks. For each theme, a multimedia lecture and discussion will focus on upcoming concerts. Music and its intersections with other arts will be presented by composer and Executive Artistic Director Carson Kievman, Ph.D., and guest presenters/artists from other media such as visual art, dance, film, literature, etc. o Inside Music: Intimate Sounds. The intimate setting of SMI is conducive to solo, duet, and trio musical performances that enable the listener to relate easily to the musical ideas of each period. For each musical theme, the initial concert(s) will be small-scale works of this nature. o Inside Music: SMI Chamber Ensemble. Each theme will culminate with larger-scale chamber works. 8 I:-:Iistc~.ric Carl ~isl~et• C~'~Iabhoilse ! 2:1.00 l~'aslai.ra~;ton \~ cnue ! .~~tiarrti 13tac:7:z, I~.I.., 33.139 'I"el: 30:i-674-9220 • ixafol tom' mc~ter~Pa~•Icarts.org • ~~~iw.rn~y~tzryl~<~r1~il~.s.o.rg _,N,._....A_. __,__.__ > MYSTERY PARK AR'T`S COMPANI' • SO$E MUSIC INSTITUTE :~ 5a1 {c) {3} No'r-F~~x-Pxol,t'1~ t'~R'T'S ANI7 ~I)L(A"I'1~:'V URG.l:til'L;1'1'10\ It should be noted that a popular feature of all SMI concerts is a brief introduction of historical background, composer biographies, or musical themes for each program. The Executive Artistic Director provides perspective both to entertain and educate the audiences, enhancing music appreciation for attendees who have not had extensive exposure to classical works. Musical programming for each event is determined by the Executive Artistic Director in collaboration with the performing artists. Other performance events and programs. SMI has begun to develop new programming to complement the successful Open Friday series, and we plan to expand these efforts in 2008-09. Our objective is to produce or to host high- quality arts programming that furthers our broad arts education mission, and that extends use of the Carl Fisher Clubhouse and grounds without conflicting with basic music programs. Examples include (but are not limited to): o Music Unites! Launched in May 2008, this free series is afamily-oriented music activity for Saturday mornings that takes place in the outdoor courtyard immediately adjacent to the Carl Fisher Clubhouse. Projected on a monthly basis throughout the coming year, each event is organized and presented by a member of the SMI faculty with expertise in specific world cultures and music. SMI is in discussion with The Parent Academy to promote the event to families across the county through their extensive email and telephone network. The series features world music, especially music with distinctive percussive rhythms, in an interactive program that permits dancing and singing and playing of unusual instruments, as well as discussion with the artists. Music Unites is a community project allowing families to learn and experience other cultures though the power of music. o Subtropics Festival events (produced by iSAW) and programs. This winter will bring the 20th edition of a new music festival that has brought to Miami some of the most influential composers and artists in American contemporary music. The 20th Subtropics Experimental Festival of Music and the Sound Arts, produced by the nonprofit Interdisciplinary Sound Arts Workshop (iSAW), will constitute the first meeting of the current South Florida Composer's Alliance /iSAW advisory board, including 9 I-:I.i~tc~.tii: Carl.

SMI has met with iSAW Artistic and Executive Director Gustavo Matamoros to discuss a program of selected performance events, educational presentations, and/or artist discussions to be hosted by SMI at the Clubhouse, including events open to the public. SMI has also spoken with iSAW about the coordination of music programming in other areas, including the joint development of an electronic recording facility and linkage to iSAW's extensive archives or music recordings and historical documents. o History of American Cinema. The main chamber of the Clubhouse, as noted, has been utilized for multimedia lectures and film as part of the Art Speaks! musical series. To improve the quality and experience of such events, SMI plans to obtain high-quality projection equipment and to make this resource available for other events, such as a new series featuring under-appreciated film masterpieces and avant-garde works in historical perspective. SMI has met with filmmaker Charles Recker, a Miami Beach-based artist who has produced over 100 films and videos, to discuss a series that he would curate and introduce. Mr. Recker, the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, has taught at the graduate level for Vermont College since 1997 and has been honored by the "Masters of the Avant-Garde" film program at Harvard University's Carpenter Center for the Arts. o Other events. A Miami Beach "Sleepless Nights" event has been discussed for next season, and it would be SMI's objective to make the Clubhouse a destination for this popular cultural night. SMI has also engaged its faculty ensemble for special public performances in park, museum, or garden settings and will continue to do so. We believe that such events, beyond their intrinsic value, help to promote the visibility of ongoing activities that take place in the Clubhouse. Musical theater and other arts education (Little Theater). Though the City RFP anticipates only the use of the Clubhouse, SMI proposes to expand our arts education program to include the adjacent Little Theater facility.

The next step, based on the lack of theater training in Miami Beach and the logical connections between music and theater, will be to develop programming in music theater as a complement to the music program. SMI Executive Artistic Director Carson Kievman has 30 years experience working in the theater, including Stage Director and Composer in Residence for the legendary theatrical producer Joseph Papp, of The Public Theater and The New York Shakespeare Festival (the original producer of Hair, A Chorus Line, and others). This dimension of the SMI program will be developed by Dr. Kievman with the same high standards as in the music education programs, drawing from local theater professionals, and may be developed with potential partnerships with local or national theater organizations. Collaboration and use of facilities by other organizations. SMI intends to operate the City's Clubhouse facilities, and to develop new areas of arts programming, in close collaboration with other organizations. Thus, for example, SMI looks forward to developing music theater and theater as a next step in its arts programming. Other areas of potential future development are reflected in the broad themes of the performance series for 2008-09, including film, literature, dance, and other arts. In each case, the approach of SMI is to work closely with leading arts organizations to develop synergistic approaches to programming that draw from talented local artists and benefit the local community. Additionally, when Clubhouse facilities can be made available to other organizations without disrupting educational and performance programs, SMI intends to manage and make available the facilities in the same manner that the Miami Beach Garden Conservancy opens its facilities to other organizations. 11 ~:-I.1StL).CiL; Cx`trl F.i_Sl~.et• t~tzbhot~Se, t 2l t~U ~~•'as}:ain€;tL>z~ r~~ ctxt~c= ~ '~~tiarr~i I3eaL:}:~.

SMI recruits students through email lists and through printed cards that are distributed to various Miami Beach locations, including libraries and schools. Additional marketing is directed at Miami-Dade schools, including communications with music teachers and school principals. Based on news publicity from our summer 2007 program, students have come to SMI from throughout Miami Beach, Downtown, the Biscayne Corridor and beyond to receive our high-quality music education. The largest proportion of students come from Miami Beach, particularly in the case of after-school youth programs. With the opening of a teen program at the 21St Street Recreation Center, SMI has also begun discussion with City staff regarding the development of customized music or musical theater programming for at-risk Miami Beach teens from Nautilus Middle School and Miami Beach Senior High. SMI presently provides customized programming for at-risk students at Miami's Edison High on a contractual basis. 1? 1:-:tistc~rie Carl Fisher C~,ta~hota~se ! ^l f}() ~~%~~sl:ii.r~~;tor~ .1~ e~~~~~t: 0 ~:tiarr~.i I:3eacl:a.

The faculty artists are graduates of top music programs such as the Juilliard School, the Cleveland Institute of Music, Eastman School of Music, Berklee College of Music, North Carolina School of the Arts, New England Conservatory of Music, and the schools at major universities. At SoBe Music Institute our roster of professional instructors are selected based on several key factors: • They have the necessary skills to clearly communicate their working knowledge of music to our students - no matter at what age or level the student. • They are experienced professional musicians. • They recognize that teaching is essential for a professional musician to continue to extend their own knowledge and they have a genuine personal interest in the advancement of their students.

EXCEPTIONS AND ALTERNATIVES As described in the programming section, SMI proposes to increase capacity for community services and to expand current programming based on the ability to utilize the adjacent Little Theater facility when that facility can be made available.. SMI may seek to develop match funding for improvement of the Little Theater in order to make the facility functional. Similarly, SMI may propose improvements in the Clubhouse facility and seek to develop match funding for that as well. Finally, SMI proposes to utilize the Bandshell for selected events.

To develop an expanded advisory board focused on local needs and programs, SMI recruited an 18-member local advisory board that includes representation from major performance institutions in Miami Beach (New World Symphony, Miami City Ballet) and Miami (Concert Association of FL, Arsht Center), as well as community leaders from Miami Beach's cultural arts district and parent leaders from the school. Other parent volunteers formed a 12-member Parents Advisory Committee to support a variety of program needs. SMI now operates with a 5- member Board of Directors and is planning to expand the Board in fall 2008, based in part on the continuing activities at the Carl Fisher Clubhouse. The distinguishing quality of our music instructors is their professional experience and education. We currently have 32 instructors with expertise in orchestra, chamber, opera, choral, music-theater, and solo performance, as well as international, rock and pop, jazz, and electronic music, plus composition and music theory. As professional musicians, they perform with the Miami City Ballet Orchestra, the Florida Grand Opera Orchestra, the New World Symphony, and in various chamber ensembles or as touring soloists. Besides the current group instructors noted above, our faculty roster showcases other professional musicians who provide individual lessons and/or participate in SMI Chamber Ensemble performances. These artists include graduates of Freiburg University (Germany), Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina), Szymanowski Academy of Music (Poland), and Moscow State Conservatory (Russia). South Florida's increasingly global reputation is reflected among both the artists who staff SoBe Music Institute and the residents who participate in our programs. SMI staff are a very diverse group of people with high-level training and experience, reflecting Hispanic, African-American, Eastern European, Asian, and Anglo origins. The Executive Artistic Director hails from California (Princeton School of Music), the office manager is Cuban (FIU), and academic interns have included African American, Hispanic, and Anglo university 21 1:-:I.istc~ri<' C;a.rl FiSl~a.er t~~~bht3iase t 21t)0 ~~•'as}:ai.riz,tcara 1ti~etX~ze~ t '4:lihrr~.i 13eac}a.

METHODOLOGY AND APPROACH We believe that ahigh-caliber, community-focused arts education institution is complementary -and integral - to the City's and region's vision for the arts. SMI's approach to arts education and event programming is designed to address inter-related needs and opportunities in the South Florida arts community. From the community perspective, SMI perceives a need to cultivate new audiences for fine arts -particularly if the area's arts districts are to reach their full potential - which for youth has positive impacts on development and for adults has positive impact on cultural understanding and willingness to experience new arts. The values that drive SMI's planning include: o Excellence: arts education of the highest quality to cultivate a lifelong love and appreciation for the arts and develop the potential of those with artistic talents and abilities; o Creativity: an interdisciplinary artistic perspective that promotes understanding of diverse cultural traditions; and 29 I:-:iisto.ric~ Carl Fisl~aer C~ubhot~se • ?lt}f) ~~'asl~it-~~;tozz :\~~enue 4 ~,:tiarrai 13caclY.

Pragmatically, SMI provides a venue for the many exceptional professional artists in this area to share their talents while supplementing their income as performers; therefore the needs and objectives of professional artists on the SMI faculty have a major influence on the organization's development. The planning steps towards this vision have been developed collaboratively by the Board President /Executive Artistic Director and the Board Chair, and at each stage the goals and methods are sounded to a growing board of local advisors and refined based upon their input. It should be stressed that SMI consults with the leadership of major arts institutions, who serve as advisors and ensure that SMI's role is complementary to their vision and objectives for their organizations and for the region. SMI has taken steps towards an expanded Board and has facilitated the development of a Parent Advisory Committee to strengthen the development of youth and event programming. Evaluation and customer service. Evaluation of music programs is based primarily on regular, formal assessment of student development by instructors. For youth participants, faculty members communicate progress and home practice needs to parents. Evaluation is also measured by student performance in periodic "show-and-tell" youth events and end-of-term performance galas. Besides individual evaluation and customer service, SMI utilizes other opportunities to gather input for its programs. Most recently, parent volunteers from the Music for Youth program have formed a SoBe Music Parent Advisory Committee that provides not only support for programs but guidance and input to ensure that educational and event programs reflect the needs of our target audiences. Customer service issues are shared with this group as they arise. SMI has also utilized anonymous surveys to solicit information about customer satisfaction. Sample questions from the Summer 2007-08 survey, which reached the capacity of 80 students, include: 34 I-:1.'rsto.rzc~ C;axl Fisl7.et- C~labhoe~.se • 21()() 1~ asl~i.rz~;ton \ti ez1Y~c • '~:Iia~~r~i I3eac1~, I.I., 33"139 'T'el: 3G5-674-922G • .i.nfol. cr rx~.c>scer~I~arkarts.oz • ~~.-w.rtiysteryl~<~r(~~rts.o.rg MYSTERY PARK ARTS COMPANY • SOBE MUSIC INSTITUTE :a 5~2 {c} (3} f'o'r-Fox-2'xort•r Art'rs ra'vv EUr~-c.l-t~tc>t C~x~:avaz:a't~to • What do you like the most about the program? • What do you dislike the most about the program? • What would you change to make the program better? • Are you having fun at the program? • Anything other comments? Survey responses provide valuable feedback to adjust program offerings. These results and others have been shared with the City of Miami Beach, which also has evaluated SMI program results as a condition of lease extension. By utilizing the Clubhouse facilities, SMI considers the City to be a customer whose formal input is utilized to improve programming and operations. Similarly, informal input is solicited from local organizations with interest in the City's cultural arts district, including the New World Symphony, the Collins Park neighborhood association, and others who have agreed to help shape SMI's development through the local advisory board. Evaluation of SMI performance events is based on audience growth and attendee satisfaction with program quality. From time to time attendees will be asked to fill out a survey if they wish to let us know their impressions regarding the events. With the development of a quarterly programming schedule this spring, attendance has increased from 20 to nearly 100 regular attendees. With advance listings on arts calendars and other marketing strategies, we expect that attendance will continue to grow and should average 80-100 at concert event, and slightly lower for lecture events. The organization also monitors and evaluates the growth of youth and adult student enrollments. These figures suggest that the income levels of event attendees include a significant proportion of low-income adults and youth. For example, SMI served approximately 50 students in this year's after-school programs, including 26% on partial scholarship and 23% on full scholarship during the fall, and 14% on partial scholarship and 31% full scholarship during the winter term. Another 20 at-risk students are served in an after-school program at Edison High School. These figures exclude the adult classes (28 31 3-:Tistoric: Carl Fisher t~tabhotzse t ?"lt)~) ~~'.xs}ti:rt~;tc?rt 1~-e~tttte • '~~ttarrtiI3eacli, FI, 3313t?

Marketing Plan. SMI performance events are designed to attract public attention to our arts education mission by featuring high-quality concerts or multimedia art lectures, free of charge. SMI promotes its programs through our website, e-newsletters, and our 3,000-member mailing list, as well as regular listings in periodical events calendars and flyers distributed locally and through schools. Many of our marketing materials are bilingual and produced both in English and Spanish. We make an effort to target at-risk youth from low socio- ecomomic backgrounds. Because SMI concert events are family-friendly and are presented in anon-intimidating environment, we are working to develop a formal relationship with The Parent Academy to reach its extensive family network, complementing efforts to list events and to promote programming in local, ethnic, and countywide media outlets. T'he location and quality of these free, first-class cultural activities has appeal to residents, tourists and visitors from throughout Miami-Dade County. 3? I:T.i~tc~.ri.c.
