This is our second year at the festival, and this time around, we balanced our time browsing art shows with eating bomb food, exploring Miami's cultural centers in Little Haiti, and, of course, we squeezed in some partying. Tap in for our shenanigans. What to see Historic Overtown - https://www.miamiandbeaches.com/neighborhoods/historic-overtown Historic Ward Rooming...
