Featuring Works by Local Miami Artists and Award-Winning Entries from FIU “Festival of the Trees”

The Coral Gables Museum will celebrate the city’s “First Friday” gallery night on December 2 at 7:00 p.m. with a “Party on the Plaza.” The evening will mark the first event to be hosted by the Museum’s Young Associates Committee, chaired by Cristina Mas. The event will feature a range of artistic works by Miami artists Alex Yanes, Natasha Otrakji, Roberto Chamorro and Alexander Mijares, as well as a live exhibition by Joseph Ferlito. Also on display will be entries from FIU’s 25th Annual Festival of the Trees, a unique Christmas tree design competition.

“The Coral Gables Museum is proud to showcase the works of young Miami artists,” said Arva Moore Parks, Acting Director of the Museum. “The Party on the Plaza is a wonderful way for guests to ring in the holidays and appreciate our local talent in the arts.”

Guests will enjoy cocktails courtesy of Botran Rum, Wodka Vodka and Vita Coco. Hors d’oeuvres will also be provided by the renowned 1500° Restaurant at the Eden Roc Hotel, along with entertainment by DJ John Andrew. Tickets are $20 for members of the Museum and $25 for non-members, if purchased in advance. Tickets will be available at the door for $30. All proceeds from the event will benefit the Coral Gables Museum. To purchase tickets, go to www.coralgablesmuseum.org or call Christine Rupp at (305) 910-3996.
