Vizcaya Late: Little Bahamas

An after-hours cultural program highlights the history, traditions and living legacy of Little Bahamas through music, storytelling and community-led activations.

Vizcaya Late: Little Bahamas takes place on Wednesday, February 25 at Vizcaya Museum & Gardens. Part of Vizcaya Late, the museum’s monthly evening series, the program is co-curated with descendants of Black Grove settlers, the G.W. Carver Alumni Association and leaders from Little Bahamas’ historic churches, centering voices that have shaped the neighborhood for more than a century.

The evening features student presentations by G.W. Carver Elementary School, including insights into the school’s history wall and a Caribbean dance performance by the Carver Dazzlers. Additional highlights include live music by JAM Productions, a performance by Junkanoo Miami and a video screening featuring leaders from Macedonia, St. Paul, Christ Episcopal and St. James churches sharing community histories and reflections. Guests can also engage with Ode to the Grove, the 2025 Studio Vizcaya artwork exploring Coconut Grove’s past and present, and participate in artist-led activities with photographer Nicole Combeau and visual artist Vanya Allen.

Tickets are required, with discounted pricing available for children, members and qualifying groups. Vizcaya Late offers a recurring opportunity to experience the museum after hours while exploring themes rooted in local history, art and cultural connection.
