Roam Free Writes Art Basel Guide to FREE Events and some
Art Basel 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 week of December.
Art Basel stages modern and contemporary art fairs, hosted annually in Basel Switzerland, Miami Beach, and Hong Kong. Supporting the role that galleries play in nurturing the careers of their artists, Art Basel frequently expands its platforms to include the newest developments in the visual arts.
Miami Beach, Little Haiti and Wynwood are going to be springing up with pop-up tents and events you can rsvp to for free. 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*
