Attention Art Lovers! The biggest art event in Miami will arrive to Coconut Grove this weekend. There is going to be everything at this Miami event. Last year, I really enjoyed a little stand of hand made soaps. I know soap isn’t precisely art, yet I found it peculiar, and the soaps were awesome they smelled great and were pretty. Also at this family-oriented event, the little ones will have lots of things to do. Just beware the parking issue is big. I can suggest you to park on the Coconut Grove Metrorail station’s parking and walk from there to the festival in order to avoid heavy traffic. The other option will be to park along the 27^th street were several buildings offer their fronts for parking. The parking fees can move from $10 to $20.
