Yo Space Gallery & Studios

Greatly appreciate being included in this recent Miami Herald article about artists' (not new) struggle to find affordable studio and housing options in Miami. I opened Yo Space Gallery & Studios (supported generously by my mom all these years) 12 years ago because even then artists faced the same problems.

The more things change, the more they stay the same...

😮 can't say it's an unexpected move, and I do think it'll be a positive thing for the neighborhood in the long term.

But also conscious of the fact that the differences between projects like this and the much-opposed Magic City type developments are ephemeral at best. I'm just biased on this one because I know too many great people involved or benefiting to be outright opposed to it.

The ArtCenter/South Florida, founded to provide affordable studios, is planning to build a $30 million, 40,000-square-foot art center in Little Haiti.
