March 14, 2024

The Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County (@arshtcenter) presents a new visual art exhibition featuring the work of Miami-Based Photographer Femke Tewari on display throughout the campus. Set to open during March at the beginning of Women’s History Month, MIAMI WOMEN is an ode to Miami’s beauty and cultural diversity. The 50 portraits featured offer stories about strong and often groundbreaking women who live in Miami, including: Refugees, Surfers, Creatives, Business Women, Breast Cancer Survivors, Activists, Doctors, Mayors and Others.

The exhibition will be displayed throughout the Center’s Knight Concert Hall and Ziff Ballet Opera House through June 10th. The public is invited to view the exhibition when it is at the Arsht Center for performances and during FREE, regularly scheduled tours of the Center on Mondays & Saturdays at 12:00 p.m. Noon. More information on tours here.

The photographs in MIAMI WOMEN were taken in many stunning locations around Miami to accentuate the beauty of our city and the strong feminine spirit that helped build Miami’s character. Kimba King, the Arsht Center’s Senior Director of Human Resources, a team member for nearly two decades, and Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava are among the women featured in the exhibition.
