Miami Center for the Photographic Arts

Description:

• Located in a very diverse part of Miami, this gallery is dedicated to the fine art and craft of photography. The 2600 square feet space is airy with movable walls within. With much of the photographic world going digital, causing the closing of many professional labs, MCPA has a state-of-the-art black and white darkroom that can be rented. Underscoring MCPA's consideration for things endangered, an old fashioned photo booth (circa 1947) has been restored and made operational—4 poses in 6 minutes! Artists and professional photographers show their work here regularly. On occasions, it also displays ceramics, glass, mezzotints, sculptures, painting and fine prints. Take the time to visit this Miami original. - Mercedes de Marchena
