Celebrating PRIDE Month with art and community

Join us for Noche de Arte, collaboARTive’s free weekly art experience at Gallery 100 inside InterContinental Miami—where hotel guests, locals, and visitors come together for a relaxed night of art, conversation, and creative play.

Each Monday, you’ll meet a featured artist, enjoy light bites provided by InterContinental Miami, and take part in a hands-on collage activity—no experience needed, just show up and make something.

JUNE 2026 ARTIST IN RESIDENCE: O. GUSTAVO PLASCENCIA

A key part of the experience: the Artist-in-Residence creates live during the event, breaking down the borders between artist and viewer and inviting everyone into the process in real time.

Celebrating PRIDE Month in June

PRIDE Month is a time to celebrate LGBTQ+ identity, creativity, and community—and to reaffirm that everyone deserves to feel safe, seen, and welcome. At collaboARTive, that aligns with what Noche de Arte is all about: bringing people together through art, conversation, and shared creative play.

This month at Noche de Arte, we’re honoring PRIDE by uplifting LGBTQ+ artists and allies, making space for self-expression, and celebrating the joy that comes from showing up as your full self. Join us in June as we create, connect, and keep building a community where everyone belongs.

“We have broken boundaries and provided a wonderful opportunity for local artists to showcase their works, engage with their black book and interact with our hotel guests. Thank you all for your support and partnership and we look forward to continuing to make magic together! ” — Gina Genna, Dir. of Marketing, InterContinental Miami

About the Artist

O. Gustavo Plascencia is a visual artist and educator whose creative work documents local ecosystems and practices walking methodologies to create a record of his surroundings. He explores the intersection of photography, nature, and memory, presenting landscapes as silent witnesses to personal and collective histories. His practice also focuses on the duality between the personal and the communal, and the self and society. Plascencia attended the Escuela de Artes Plásticas “Ruben Herrera” in Saltillo, Coahuila, Mexico, before immigrating to the USA. He has held several academic appointments at the University of North Texas, Memphis College of Art, and Lycoming College before being appointed Dean of Visual Arts at the New World School of the Arts in Miami, FL.

Now in it’s fifth year of programming, Noche de Arte is presented by collaboARTive in partnership with InterContinental Miami Hotel, Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau, Miami Downtown Development Authority, and with the support of the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, the Cultural Affairs Council and the Miami-Dade County Mayor and Board of County Commissioners. Sponsored in part by the State of Florida through the Division of Arts and Culture and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Join the Museum of Art and Design (MOAD) at the Freedom Tower for a screening of Estamos Conectados.

This documentary, directed by Ernesto Fundora, explores the life and work of Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara, one of Cuba’s most unconventional artists, who defied the Cuban regime through performance art.

His activism eventually led to the rise of the political resistance movement Movimiento San Isidro, named after the street where he lived. His relentless opposition to the Cuban government inspired the anthem “Patria y Vida” which galvanized a generation of young Cubans and helped spark the historic anti-government protests of July 11, 2021.

Now imprisoned for his political activism, Luisma, as he is known to his supporters, was named by Time magazine as one of the 50 most influential people of our era.

This event is presented in conjunction with the Institute for Freedom in the Americas at Miami Dade College.

Event attendees may park for free in the MDC garage at 500 NE Second Avenue, between NE Fifth and NE Sixth Streets.

Orchestra Miami’s Concert Master Mei Mei Luo performs the bravura Carmen Fantasy by Pablo Sarasate, a virtuosic take on the themes from Georges Bizet’s most famous work, Carmen. The art of the chanson is represented by the Cinq mélodies populaires grecques (Five popular Greek songs) by Maurice Ravel, an exquisite example of impressionism performed by tenor Gerardo José Ortega. The final piece on the program is the light-hearted and satiric Wind Sextet by Francis Poulenc, a pinnacle masterpiece of the woodwind repertoire.

The performers include some of Orchestra Miami’s finest musicians- Mei Mei Luo, violin; Anthony Seepersad, violin; Mujan Hosseinzadeh, viola; Ashley Garritson, cello; Elissa Lakofsky, flute, Kendra Hawley, oboe; Richard Hancock, clarinet; Gabrielle Hsu, bassoon and special guest tenor Gerardo José Ortega, performing alongside Orchestra Miami’s Artistic Director Elaine Rinaldi at the piano.

Join us for the second of two webinars this spring that explore how scholars, journalists, and artists are recovering a more complete picture of the Angolan Civil War’s legacy.

Half a century after the start of Cuba’s military involvement in Angola, the war remains one of the most consequential yet least discussed experiences of the revolutionary period. For the tens of thousands of Cubans who served overseas between 1975 and 1991—as soldiers, teachers, doctors, and technicians—the conflict left lasting personal and social scars that have often been overshadowed by triumphalist official narratives.

The presentation will be followed by a Q&A with the online audience. This conversation will be conducted in both English and Spanish languages.
