Roam Free Writes Art Basel Guide to FREE Events and Miami Art Week
Art Basel/ Miami Art Week is easily one of my favorite times of the year, but most locals are in the dark about where to go and what to do in the magic city the first days of December. Miami Beach, Little Haiti and Wynwood are going to be springing up with satellite fairs and events that you can rsvp to for free or purchase tickets to. I'll also be covering these for you on my socials @RoamFreeWrites bringing you exclusive behind the scenes so be sure to tune in. Below you will find free events, art fairs and music events and I'll also be updating this post daily. You can also email me about listing your event to : info@roamfreewrites.com *Green Mean$ Free* Thursday November 30
