Noche de Arte

Embrace Miami's art scene at Collaboartive's Noche de Arte series every Monday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. For three successful years, the InterContinental Miami has hosted Noche de Arte, a free and open-to-the-public art activation and exhibition. A different artist in residence is featured every month in the hotel's Gallery Lounge, where you can participate in a creative play session and view the artist's exhibition. Light bites from Toro Toro will also be available.

Here's a glimpse at the featured artists in residence through November:

• July: Mónica Isla demonstrates her evolving artistic vision through continuous education and global exhibitions. Her work is currently featured at Artok Gallery locations in Rotterdam, Barcelona and Mexico, as well as the Circle Foundation of the Arts in Lyon. Through mentorship at Oolite Arts, she continues to develop her craft while maintaining an active presence in the global art community.
• August - American Artist Appreciation Month: Dan Ramirez, a Miami native of Cuban heritage, brings his mixed-media expertise to the residency program. His artistic journey, which began at Auburndale Elementary and led through New World School of the Arts, was enriched by his experience as a gallery assistant at Fredrick Snitzer's Gallery. His work reflects the influence of Cuban artists and various mentors who have shaped his creative development.
• September - Hispanic Heritage Month: Pamela Vasquez, a Chilean-born photographer, creates ethereal multi-exposure images that explore social and demographic issues. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts, she approaches photography as a form of light painting, producing work that challenges perceptions and invites dialogue about contemporary human experiences. Her multimedia art serves as a platform for exploring diverse narratives and encouraging audience reflection.
• October - Hispanic Heritage Month: Ramon Altamirano combines traditional and digital techniques in his mixed media practice. The Miami-based artist, holding both BFA and MFA degrees, works across various mediums including acrylic painting, digital art, printmaking and ceramics. His work is complemented by poetry that aligns with his visual expressions, showcasing his multidisciplinary approach to contemporary art.
• November: Full Circle: The collaboARTive Origin Story brings Noche de Arte back to its roots with artists Jean Blackwell Font and Ignacio “Iggy” Font, co-founders of collaboARTive. On view throughout November at Gallery 100 inside InterContinental Miami, this installment celebrates creativity and community through mixed media works that explore memory, transformation and renewal. Guests can meet the artists, enjoy light bites and take part in interactive postcard collaging during this special month-long return to where the movement began.
