Gallery walk, wine, and maybe rain weekend
I just heard the weather prediction for this weekend on the TV: It might rain some. Or not. Maybe a little more on Sunday then Saturday. Not a washout by any means, probably. Sigh. Ok, here we go:
Friday
- You have a big art day ahead of you tomorrow, but the opening of Karen Kilimnik’s show at MoCA may be worth a visit anyway (or go Sunday when it’s quiet).
- MAYDAY! at Jazid.
Saturday
- Critical Mass does Coral Gables. Explain to me the business about getting a bike permit for Metrorail?
- Fred and Ginger, Carefree, at the Miami Beach Regional Library, 11 am.
- Chef Philippe Pinon of Blue Door/Blue Sea at Delano will be doing a cooking demonstration in the kitchen area of the Aventura Macy’s, 1 pm.
- Just the Funny School Survival Guide at the Miami Science Museum.
- OK, so September is officially when the gallery walk picks back up after a grueling summer. Here are the officially recommended galleries for this month (grab a map here [pdf] if you need to): David Castillo, Dorsch, Hardcore Art, Locust, MoCA warehouse (Consortium winners), Diana Lowenstein, Spinello (Susan Lee-Chun), and Bernice Steinbaum. Also a couple of places not on your map: the Moore Space (TM Sisters), and Harold Golen (lowbrow). May also want to read Brett Sokol’s writeup in the Herald.
- State of the Art (Rawkus Edition) ArtOfficial [MySpace] at PS14.
Sunday
- Maybe today check out the Miami International Wine Fair. A one-day ticket is $75, or $120 if you want to get into the exclusive area where they pour the really expensive stuff. Sure, I’ll say it: “get yo drink on.”

BPAC passed a resolution awhile ago to get rid of the bike pass for Metrorail. I’m not sure if you even need it anymore. I’ve never been asked for one.
In that case I’m good to go for the CM ride. Take the rail to the Douglas Road station, then do this.
It’s going to be dependent on getting my ass in gear by around 8:30 am, but recent experience suggests there’s a decent chance of that.
