Wynwood is truly a fascinating part of the City of Miami. Years ago this NE section was known as the barrio or "Little San Juan."
After a large shopping mall was built in the early 2000's the neighborhood turned into a fashionable art, fashion, textile and technology center. It is also dotted with restaurants, cafes and lounges.
We have been hearing about Wynwood for some time and it has been on our list of things to do. Friday afternoon we drove down to take in the 2013 Contemporary International Art Fair at Wynwood.
It was a excellent show and we enjoyed the evening. Join us for a look.
New materials, new techniques, and new art forms were the rage at Art Wynwood !
