Okay, Miami’s art scene has grown up a lot since I moved here from San Francisco over 21 years ago. Now there are concerts, monthly art walks, symphonies and a variety of art programs year round. However, with the cool weather teasers that usually start in October, so does Miami’s main season of the arts. Here is a list of things to do in October to get you started.
