Alternate Space Art Gallery, Miami

Situated on the second floor of CocoWalk, this is a forward thinking art gallery. The artists, who have decided to sell their art themselves, run the place. So far, they have a good grip on the situation. The gallery offers original works, reproductions, and art objects such as tables, chairs and skateboards. Limited edition apparel is also available. There are special events organized for charity that involved the owners and other artists they invite to participate. These are very successful and worth attending. Art instruction and live painting sessions are also offered. The concept is innovative and the gallery is gaining a following. It's a must visit if you are in the area. - Mercedes de Marchena
