BY JESSE SCOTT I n the name of art, let’s party. As if we needed another reason for everyone to descend on the 305 at the peak of snowbird season, Miami Art Week is again upon us. Beyond what- ever this year’s version of a duct-taped ba- nana to splurge on and galleries upon galleries to peruse, it remains the week of the year to get out and have a good time. Amid super-exclusive, private events, there are plenty of ticketed and open-to-the-public parties to attend. For this list, New Times is highlighting the parties anyone can get into — just make sure to RSVP and snag tickets. Hugel, Themba, and Others at Hyde Beach Things kick off Wednesday, December 4, with the Art of the Future showcase with jams from Julian OK, Sasha Goat, and DJEN.
