Art week in Miami is one of the most anticipated events of the year for fashionistas, art critics, and lovers alike.
This year I was able to continue my tradition of going on the Friday of Art week with my art class, but this year it got a little more interesting.
Me and two other friends decided to venture out alone and do what we wanted to do, on our own time. this worked out smoothly all day. We went to Wynwood, ate breakfast/lunch, saw Mr. Ligouri (our art teacher) and his exhibit in Spectrum. On our way to actual Art Miami is when things took a not so great turn (literally). One wrong turn in Miami and you’re faced with a row of angry rage and cars going in the opposite direction of the way you’re facing…. and no way to turn around. SO what do you do? Cry. thats the only answer and that exactly what I did, in the middle of this Miami street I cried and then got a police to stop traffic in order for me to get out of harm’s way.
All in all it was a pretty great day but lesson learned is that I won’t be driving in Miami alone anytime soon again.
