Traditionally, Thanksgiving is the kick-off to the holiday season. But in Miami, Thanksgiving weekend leads straight into Miami Art Week. Officially, Art Basel Miami Beach takes place December 1 – 4, 2011 but unofficially the celebration of art and culture begins Monday, November 28th with cocktails and dinners and by Tuesday, November 29th the VIP previews and parties are in full swing.
If you’re wondering how one keeps up, you’re not alone. We’ve created a simple Basel guide and shared a few tips and our dining recommendations. Fortunately, as the world turns its eyes to Miami, so does the media and there are already tons of fun and useful lists and guides. Here are some of our favorites to get you started:
