Maison AfriKin at the Scott Galvin Community Center
A 35,000-square-foot, three-story cultural landmark in the heart of Downtown North Miami, positioned between the refined enclaves of Bal Harbour, Miami Shores, and Aventura.
The Venue
Maison AfriKin occupies the Scott Galvin Community Center, a 35,000-square-foot, three-story building and civic landmark in the heart of Downtown North Miami. Perfectly situated between the refined enclaves of Bal Harbour, Miami Shores, and Aventura, the venue offers an elegant setting that mirrors the sophistication and global significance of the fair itself.
Maison AfriKin provides an intimate yet expansive stage for artistic exploration, where cutting-edge exhibitions, immersive installations, and thought-provoking dialogue come to life. Its distinctive location positions AfriKin as both a community anchor and an international destination, welcoming art patrons, cultural leaders, and collectors from around the world to experience Miami Art Week through the distinctive lens of Africa and its diaspora.
Behind its curved glass facade, the building's soaring curtain wall and landscaped plaza set the tone before a visitor ever steps inside: a place built for gathering, for looking closely, and for the kind of conversation that art at its best invites.
Where the Fair Takes Its Shape
Three stories, one continuous experience, built for gathering, exhibition, and dialogue.
A sculptural glass curtain wall
The building's signature curved glass entrance, framed in brushed steel, opens onto a landscaped plaza lined with royal palms, the first gesture of an experience built for public life.
An outdoor prelude, shaded and unhurried
A circular garden and stone plaza greet visitors before the doors, offering shade and a moment of conversation before the exhibitions begin inside.
Three floors, one continuous experience
Open, adaptable galleries accommodate exhibitions, installations, panel discussions, and receptions, scaling from intimate curated rooms to fair-wide programming.
Between Bal Harbour, Miami Shores, and Aventura
Downtown North Miami sits just west of Biscayne Boulevard, at the crossroads of some of South Florida's most established communities, giving Maison AfriKin the reach of an international destination with the intimacy of a neighborhood institution.
