The fairs aren’t enough for you? If between Art Basel, NADA, Scope, Pulse, and the rest, you still don’t have enough art to gawk at in Miami, there are plenty of other venues that merit a detour. Miami’s galleries, museums, and auction houses are pulling out their best and brightest to coincide with all the fairgoers, so make some room in your itinerary. It’ll feel good to step outside a bunch of stuffy convention halls—maybe even go to the beach for once—so we’ve compiled a list of picks for the outside-the-fairs options below.
