  • This excellent museum features Seminole artifacts, such as pottery and beautiful clothing. The Green Corn Ceremony is explained also, including the games, music, dance, and costumes involved. Outside, a nature trail leads through the cypress canopy, where signs explain the use of certain flora in Seminole culture (see Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki and Billie Swamp).

  • Work by artists Pablo Soria, William Cordova, and Barbara Strasen.

  • US and Latin American photographers and artists.

  • Showcasing the work of selected young local artists.

  • Bass Museum of Art

    A collection of Western fine art and design, and historical pictures of Miami Beach.

  • The work of Edouard Duval Carrie and Wendy Wischer.

  • Work by Gustavo Lopez Armentia and other local Latinos.

  • Hispanic and Caribbean artists are shown here, as well as exhibitions relating to aspects of Cuban culture (see Top 10 Cuban Cultural Imports).

  • New collage paintings, featuring the work of Sandy Winters.

  • Starting as far back in prehistory as 10,000 years, the museum slips swiftly through the millennia to reach Spanish colonization, Seminole culture, extravagance in the “Roaring Twenties,” and Cuban immigration in more recent years.
