Your deep dive into Wynwood Art District will begin as soon as you arrive at the meeting point and get acquainted with the local artist who will be your guide for the day, helping you get under the skin of Miami’s artsiest enclave and offering a wealth of insights as to what makes the area so unique and beloved by groundbreaking urban creators around the globe. To kick off your exploration, you will hop on a golf cart so that your guide can embark upon a leisurely drive around the streets of Wynwood where you’ll get a feel for the layout of the neighbourhood and begin to peel back the layers of the ever-changing tapestry of street art that covers every available surface.
After your exhilarating introductory tour, you will have the chance to see the most important pieces of art up close within the open-air museum space that sparked the urban art revolution: the Wynwood Walls Museum. As you meander through the corridors of this remarkable outdoor gallery, you will see the murals and art installations commissioned exclusively for the space and hear the story of how Wynwood Walls were established to add a splash of much-needed colour to a grey and desolate former warehouse district and went on to transform Miami’s urban landscape and take the art world by storm. While the collection constantly evolves, you will see works by renowned urban artists such as Os Gemeos, Lauren YS, Kenny Scharf and Shepherd Fairey (the artist and activist behind the iconic Obama Hope poster for the 2008 election). Your artist guide will be able to break down the key features of each work and explain some of the main inspirations and innovative techniques used.
Following your crash course in street art theory, you will put these techniques into practice during your graffiti workshop. Your guide will take you to a specialised art space, where you will be equipped with plenty of spray paint, all the necessary tools, and protective clothing to create your own masterpieces. Your guide will show you the ropes, and then you will use all the wonderful art you have seen to inspire your artistic practice.
Unsurprisingly for a neighbourhood brimming with creativity, the food and beer scene in Wynwood has also evolved in recent years and a trip to the area would be complete without getting a taste so the final stop on your itinerary will be one of Wynwood’s legendary craft breweries. Amidst the neighbourhood's artistic and entrepreneurial spirit, several different breweries have established themselves in Wynwood and quickly gained a reputation for creating high-quality locally inspired beers. Throughout your visit, you'll hear more about the process from a master brewer and then try a variety of their products.
As your time in Wynwood draws to a close, you'll be captivated by the amazing energy of the neighbourhood. Your guide can recommend the best spots for dining, shopping and gallery hopping should you wish to keep exploring and will also give you a fun keepsake to commemorate your journey through Miami's urban art haven.
