Art from North America combined with the work of European and African artists reflects the multicultural population of Miami in a state-of-the-art educational complex.

The Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) has 120,000 square feet (11,000 square meters) of space to display art. PAMM’s aim is to enhance the cultural experience of South Florida residents and visitors in a world-class facility. This “people’s museum” is dedicated to showcasing international art of the 20th and 21st centuries, with an emphasis on the Americas, Europe and Africa, which are the places of origin for the vast majority of Miami residents.

Enjoy works from South Florida-based artists such as Leonardo Drew and Nancy Graves, who draw on their experiences of living in multicultural Miami. Exhibits also include works by renowned artists Diego Rivera, Fernando Botero and many more. Their artwork raises significant cultural questions still relevant in Miami, and the world, today. Join a guided tour to learn more about the complexities of contemporary art.

Construction of PAMM began in 2011. The design is by Swiss firm Herzog & de Meuron and the museum is celebrated for its cutting-edge architecture and cultural masterpieces.

The museum was called the Miami Art Museum (MAM) until 2013. MAM had a predecessor, the Center for the Fine Arts, but that facility merely presented historic art exhibitions and didn’t collect art. When it became a collecting institution in 1996, the museum was renamed MAM. It changed to PAMM after a $35 million gift of art and money from a founding board member, Jorge M. Pérez.

The breezy, white building is located on the 29 acres (11 hectares) of land known as the Museum Park, which also houses the Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science. It’s part of the inner-city Miami-Dade Cultural Center. The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday. Check the website for the days it is closed, including national holidays.
