Experience Overtown
#MiamiWalks is part of a global walking movement known as Jane’s Walk, and is proud to be an anchor initiative of the 2018 #10DaysofConnection!
Our neighborhood exploration of Overtown will be led by Connie W. Kinnard, who’s been a Miami resident for 3 years now. She’s happy to be marketing & promoting this multicultural and diverse community through efforts of the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau! This walking tour starts at the Historic Lyric Theater where the Historian & Executive Director of the Black Archives will meet attendees to share about Overtown’s key history and other multicultural gems in the area. Stops along the way also include: Ward Rooming House, the Old Clyde Killen’s Pool Hall, Black Police Precinct and more.
Accessibility: #MiamiWalks seeks to make this event as accessible as possible to individuals of all different abilities and needs. This walking tour in particular, will be kid-friendly.
