Presented by the City of Miami Beach and the Miami Beach Visitor and Convention Authority
No Vacancy is a juried art competition that celebrates artists, provokes critical discourse, and invites the public to experience Miami Beach's famed hotels as destination art spaces. The City of Miami Beach released a call to artists around the world to submit works for possible inclusion in the ten-day exhibition throughout a select number of hotels in Miami Beach.
For the inaugural edition of No Vacancy, $25,000 in prizes will be awarded, including a $5,000 prize by the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB) determined by public vote and a $20,000 prize awarded by a jury of art experts. This year the jury includes Silvia Karman Cubiña, Director and Chief Curator of The Bass Museum of Art; Dennis Scholl, Executive Director of Oolite Arts and Maria Elena Ortiz, Associate Curator at the Perez Art Museum Miami.
Representatives from the City of Miami Beach Art in Public Places Committee, Cultural Arts Council and Miami Beach Visitor and Convention Authority selected the ten participating artists and hotels. Each selected artist will received a stipend of $10,000 to realize their project.
The winner of the Juried Prize will be announced on December 4, 2020, and the winner of the Public Prize will be announced on December 12, 2020.
