    The miramar cultural center always hosts wonderful events. A few months ago I took their creole class every Saturday for 5 weeks. At the end of the 5 weeks they held a graduation for all the students. The commissioner Yvonne came to give us a heartfelt speech while all of our names were individually called to receive a certificate. Afterwards, we ate Haitian food that was catered for us. It was a beautiful cultural event. I also went to the food and wine festival with my mom a few weeks ago. There were a lot of vendors with beautiful art and tasty food. The music was good and a lot of people came out to support. The most recent event that I went to was the one mile race on Saturday morning. It was really fun running through the neighborhood as a group. Getting a medal at the end felt like a nice achievement and a great way to start the weekend! It was also a good start to prepare for the Miami half marathon again. I love the events that the cultural center puts together! I can't wait for the next one!

    Built in 2008 and adjacent to city hall sits the 42,162 square foot Miramar Cultural Center. It is is located at the Southeast corner of the Flamingo Road/Red Road connector and Miramar Boulevard. The purpose of the cultural arts center is to provide cultural programs by professional artists for all ages and members of the community. The center is part of the 54 acre Town City parcel. The cultural center anchors the 15 acre Town Center which contains residences, restaurants and shopping. The cultural center is an ArtsPark, a place people can come to experience performing, visual and literary arts in a park like setting. The ArtsPark includes classrooms and workshop space, as well as exhibit and performance spaces and cultural programming by professional artists for free and low cost events so that the community can experience the arts. The Cultural Arts Center consists of an 814 seat performing arts theater, recital room, banquet halls capable of seating five hundred people, two art galleries, a full kitchen, and music, dance and arts/crafts classrooms.Outside is an amphitheater and a botanical and sculpture garden. The architects for this project was Cartaya & Associates and I think they did an amazing job. They created a place where you an live, catch a show, eat, and shop without having to get into your car and drive anywhere. On top of that it is absolutely beautiful. I think every city should have an ArtsPark like this. A full list of events and shows can be found on the Miramar Cultural Arts website.

    My review is just on the building from the outside as it was shut when I visited. See some information below, that I found out about it. The development of the Miramar Cultural Center - ArtsPark resulted in a significant contribution to the cultural development of southwest Broward County by allowing the City to celebrate its rich cultural diversity through a variety of programs and activities. This facility sits adjacent to City Hall and the Civic Plaza. It encompasses 47,000 square feet, which includes an 800+ seat theatre, art gallery, multi-purpose rooms, banquet hall, botanical garden, recital/rehearsal spaces, classrooms, meeting rooms, full-service kitchen, and administrative offices. The project also includes a public art water feature known as 'Vanishing View', which was designed by international artist Alison Sky. The project was completed in December 2008 and was partially funded by a $2.1 million grant from Broward County, as well as a State of Florida $500,000 Cultural Facilities Grant.

    Why didn't anyone tell me about this!!! The Miramar Cultural Center and ArtsPark wowed me this weekend, and not just because of the beautiful lighting display! This center for the performing, visual and literary arts is a splendid venue offering cultural programming by artists to the community at large. We gathered here for my niece's dance academy's Holiday Show. I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the theatre, much smaller than other venues in the county, but just as accommodating. The orchestra pit isn't a pit. It's just a space between the stage and the first row (center). The musicians seemed cozily tucked in, and played freely and gleefully! The staff at the door and throughout was professional and pleasant, and the restrooms and hallways were clean. This cultural center is adjacent City Hall and the Development Services building. There are luxury condos. and small boutique-style businesses that surround it. And there is more than meets the eye, with a theatre, banquet hall, dance studio, classrooms, botanical garden, and art gallery; providing features, such as state-of-the-art lighting and sound, on-site catering, and free parking. If you're interested in reserving any of the spaces for special events or meetings, call (954) 602-4509, log on to miramarculturalcenter.org, or email: events@miramarculturalcenter.org

    Christmas tree lighting at Miramar cultural center

    I attended the Christmas tree lighting which was a joint venture between City of Miramar and the Miramar Cultural Center. It was a festive night to say the least. It was a pleasure watching the children from the Early Childhood Academy Perform Christmas songs. There were lots of activities for the kids. Christmas train ride, bounce house, pictures with Santa, and a Holiday movie on the lawn in front of City Hall. What a way to bring in the holiday. There were also food vendors present like some of which included Hungry Howie's, Grillin and Chillin. It was so beautiful to see the palm trees surrounding the property full of lights with snowflakes and ribbons. I enjoyed the eventful night and am very grateful for the city, for doing this for the community.

    Located right next to City Hall the Cultural Center was created to celebrate creating and diversity within the city. I had the opportunity to attend Yom Kippur holiday services here a few months ago and I fell in love with this venue. The services were held in the 800 seat theater. Let me start by saying that the seats were very comfortable. If your going to be sitting for two hours, a comfortable seat is definitely a plus. The lighting and sound system were both on point. We sat up front and the sound was not overpowering at all. Actually it was perfect. The theater is perfect to rent for graduations, weddings and corporate events. Botanical Gardens, banquet facilities and art galleries can all be found here. It would be a great place to have a wedding. In my dream, my significant other would propose to me in the Botanical Gardens, and then our wedding will be held here, with the cocktail hour of course being where else but in the gardens. Maybe I'm jumping the gun here because obviously I need to find my significant other first. But a lady can dream right? They offer a Kids Culture Series which is a fun way to introduce children to cultural arts. Alice in Wonderland and The Tortoise and The Hare are coming up and I must admit that I wouldn't mind seeing them again. I guess my inner child wants to come out and play. All shows include an art activity provided by the Young at Art Children's Museum and face painting. These activities start one hour prior to the start of the show. All children's shows are only $15. During the summer the cultural center offers a summer camp program for the kids too. It's not all for the kids because they have several adult shows as well. Nutcracker, Romeo and Juliet and Annie are all on the schedule as well as many other shows that look interesting. The Ansin Family Art Gallery provides many art exhibitions throughout the year. I definitely want to return to take a look at the gallery. And yes, I want to come back to speak with the wedding planner to plan my future wedding...

    I was at this theatre to see the nutcracker. The show was beautifully performed. Loved everything about it! Every seat is a great seat! The theatre is on a smaller scale therefore visualizing the people on the stage is a given. There is no strain on the eye. There is alcohol, soft drinks. And snacks served just as if you were at the broward center. There is plenty of FREE parking at this location. The ticket line went very swiftly. This location is easy to get to and great for anyone! I will definitely be going back in the future for other events. The venue is beautifully set up for the holidays.

    Great 20min glass blowing class! We enjoyed getting to build a large, beautiful item. A few things…read moreto note: - most items cannot be built as a couple/together. I called ahead & asked about booking 1 slot/item for 2 people, and was told that's okay. When we got there they clarified that only certain items can be built by 2 people (fish, turtle, flower), but they allowed us to also built the vase together. That means if you do this as a date night/group activity, the other person will sit on the side while you build your item. I believe they host couple specific nights (or you can choose one of the few items that is partner friendly). - this is a QUICK guided activity. There wasn't any pre-education on glass blowing, techniques, advice, etc. You are allowed to pick up to 3 colors and then you basically follow the teachers instructions for each step with heavy assistance from the teacher on each step. This isn't a class for someone who's wanting to learn glass blowing basics, be creative, or do most of the process themselves. It's VERY guided and directed. Granted, it takes people decades to learn large scale glass blowing, so I understand why it's designed that way. But if you're looking for more creative freedom/independence, I'd recommend checking out Glass Bubble in Miami. - In addition to the above point, you're not really sure how to make the piece "good". For example, our vase had a ton of bubbles and I'm not sure there's anything we could've done differently to prevent that (and we weren't warned about it). Overall though, this is a cool art activity and you get exposure to some of the tools of glass blowing while getting to go home [the next day] with a cool item!

    Great experience! Fun and creative activity for various ages. Highly recommend making a glass item…read moreyou will utilize in the future!

The exhibit is so large it is only displayed in one location per year. While we were there, there were two sculptors working on new pieces, both took the time to speak with us. Love is in the air at the Bonnet House, while we were there they were setting up for a wedding and we saw a proposal. A beautiful setting for both. They have special events throughout the year, including an orchid show and Christmas holiday wonderland. Guided and self guided house tours are available,$30-40, we opted for the grounds tour only, $15. The gardens are well shaded so even on a warm day our visit was comfortable.

Some of the artist's more recent works are produced through a special process that involves the use of multiple layers of paint and resin to create depth and dimension in his work that is truly unique. Through the process, his paintings become sculpture and he is able to express complex ideas in a format that does not necessarily require a large canvas. The artist's larger pieces are of the caliber that you would expect to find permanently displayed in public places where they can be appreciated by a wide audience. I would recommend visiting the artist's audio where you can learn more about what inspires him to use various types of media and how his work evolves into a finished piece. He has clearly developed his own voice and techniques through years of practice and dedication. Sri's work should appeal to both the casual collector as well as the serious art investor who wishes to add something noteworthy to a portfolio.
