Art Outside Annual Picnic

Our premier picnic returns Sunday, April 6 to Collins Park in Miami Beach, for artmaking, music and more, free for the entire family!

Gather with friends and neighbors to enjoy live music by the FIU Latin Jazz Ensemble, Himalayan Salt Band, and DJ nosocials. Be transported by the O Cinema Virtual Reality station.

Revive at the Fountain of Youth with bubbly. Commissioned by Future Bass, artist Haiiileen of Rainbow Oasiiis, leads a hands-on decor and mosaic design of a vintage fountain. Jump in to add your own elements while sipping champagne.

Step into the Children’s Pavilion, where kids and families can explore, create, and unwind. Enjoy hands-on art-making activities for all ages led by The Bass Creativity Center and our Teen Board, with projects inspired by the museum’s exhibitions. Take a break under the shade in the Chill & Read Zone, featuring a selection of books curated by the Miami Beach Public Library. Stop by the Teen Board Lemonade Stand for a refreshing drink and support these young artists while learning more about their work. Celebrate the Creativity Center’s annual Teen Art Exhibition with us as we announce the winners from the picnic stage. Participate in The Things Lab’s “Art Supplies Swap” and barter materials for your next project.

Stroll by Artisan Alley to peruse and shop local small business including O, Miami’s Mobile Dale Zine Shop, Erica Lores, Roots Miami, J Candles, and more.
