Changemakers before #Changemaker was cool.
For six years, Life Is Art has worked to support and promote our local arts and artists, as well as the community, other organizations, local businesses and our residents. We have committed ourselves to make Miami a better place to live, work and love. Founded in 2009, we were one of the few groups to focus on local artists and provide a wide range of services and opportunities. Now, we are celebrating the sixth year of providing much-needed services, as we look forward to grow and do more for the community.

Host Venue Sponsor
Hotel Astor is a boutique Art Deco hotel in the heart of South Beach. With 1936 Vitrolite wall panels and a cut coral facade, we’re an architectural gem. Just ask the Miami Design Preservation League. Some come for the history, the gleam in our original terrazzo floors. Others come for our stellar location, just steps from the beach. As for us, we love the music.
