Art Week Miami unfolds after months of preparation by artists, galleries, and collectors. Known for its Art Deco influence and beachy Americana aesthetic, Miami has become a central stage for the art world as Art Basel Miami brings together over 283 galleries from across the globe. Alongside the fair, several other events contribute to the excitement: Design Miami celebrates its 20th anniversary, Untitled features new guest curators, and Alcova returns for its third edition. The city’s sunny, verdant backdrop energizes visitors as they hop from fair to fair, with the occasional gallery or museum visit offering a welcome reprieve. Together, these fairs mark the climax of the art season before the world enters a brief hibernation for the winter holidays.

Returning for its third edition, Alcova Miami once again transforms the historic Miami River Inn into a lush haven for experimental design. From December 2–7, the independent platform will present a site-specific exhibition that merges contemporary creativity with the layered charm of the city’s oldest hotel—an enclave of pastel façades, verandas, and tropical gardens tucked within the South River Drive Historic District of East Little Havana.
