This week marks the 21st edition of the New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA) Miami fair, which returns to its home at Ice Palace Studios with nearly 150 exhibitors from more than 50 international cities. Conceived to elevate new figures in contemporary art, the fair welcomes galleries, nonprofits, and other art spaces—including 85 NADA members and 34 debut presenters. Joining the main exhibitions is the platform Curated Spotlight, presented with support from TD Bank, this year inviting Jenée-Daria Strand (assistant curator at Public Art Fund) to select a series of standout gallery presentations.

“The 21st edition of NADA Miami comes on the heels of a very exciting year: we rang in the 20th anniversary of New Art Dealers Alliance, celebrated the fifth edition of NADA House, opened a new exhibition space, organized programs and exhibitions in eight cities, and hosted an ongoing series of NADA Curated presentations online,” said NADA executive director Heather Hubbs. “We’re thrilled to welcome visitors to the fair this winter to celebrate our vibrant community of artists, dealers, and supporters.”
