South Florida's Cultural Arts Park Launches the Festival Season with a Weekend Filled with Fun & Festivities for the Entire Family

Gardens Gallery Presents.... incrEDIBLE gardens The Art of Collaged Organic Imagery! Gardens Gallery Artists have always been attracted to the subject of organic matter as imagery in their work. Giuseppe Arcimboldo’s “Feast for the Eyes” serves as an example of the artist’s visual wit. Artist Dieter Roth experimented with organic materials such as chocolate and banana on canvas and there have been many artists who have used flora and fauna to create fashionable designs to adorn the human form. Gardens and their produce have always served as an inspiration to artists throughout history! Join us in the Gardens Gallery October 1-17 when Miami Dade Public School Students, grades K-12 exhibit a show of collage and mixed media inspired by edible gardens.
