Miami Art Hang

Former Guggenheim Museum Education Manager Veronica Pesantes recently launched “Art Hang" to help locals and visitors engage with Miami’s vibrant art scene. Veronica believes art makes a difference in our lives by challenging and expanding the way we see the world so she curates and facilitates private tours that deepen our understanding of art and build community. Often a group happy hour at a local bar concludes the experience, as everyone wants more time to connect and network. In our oversaturated lives, carving out time to see art and keeping up with everything that is happening in Miami can be difficult. Art Hang makes it easy– just show up and soak in some afternoon culture. The first three experiences sold out, proving that folks in Miami are down for more than raves and rosé all day, but as a reader of The Miami Native you knew that already! A sample itinerary includes a guided tour of a museum, followed by gallery and studio visits to meet Miami's emerging artists. Pesantes teaches Art History and writes and lectures about culture at large. Aside from visiting galleries and museums weekly, she devours books, reviews and any articles that come her way about the arts. While witnessing people rush through a museum exhibit, her inner art educator led her to launch Art Hang to bridge the gap between the often insular art world and the public.
