Six exhibits. Four venues. Two city blocks. All designed to move you.
Jamaica On Our Minds: A Night for Recovery is happening today, and we’re inviting you to join us in supporting Capt Barrington Irving’s mission to bring real relief to communities in Jamaica impacted by the recent hurricane.
Tonight is all about giving back while celebrating the strength, culture, and spirit of Jamaica. Enjoy live performances from Reggae Artist Matthew and vibes from DJ Jazzy T, along with exclusive raffles, a silent art auction, and a vibrant community gathering that directly supports Experience Aviation’s recovery efforts led by Capt. Irving.
As the evening unfolds, we invite you to continue experiencing Art of Transformation across the campus. Art and culture will carry into the night (9-12 pm) at the Historic Opa-locka Train Station, where an elegant late-night lounge experience will offer music, community, and space to explore even more of the festival’s programming.
Your presence truly makes a difference. Be part of a night filled with purpose, unity, and Caribbean pride.
Experience the Art of Transformation
Now in its 13th year, the Art of Transformation (AOT) stands as a premier showcase of world-class art from across Africa and the African Diaspora. Set in the heart of historic Opa-locka, this vibrant cultural experience transforms two city blocks into an open-air museum of exhibitions, performances, and community celebration.
Immerse yourself in six dynamic exhibitions across five unique venues, featuring a full schedule of artist talks, panel discussions, live performances, and social gatherings that capture the spirit of innovation and unity in the Diaspora.
As an official Miami Art Week destination and affiliate event of Art Basel Miami Beach, AOT continues to spotlight the power of art to transform spaces, minds, and communities.Presented by Ten North Group in partnership with the City of Opa-locka.
All exhibitions are free and open to the public daily from 9 AM to 9 PM, with special programs, panels, and live moments throughout the week.
