BY JESSE SCOTT I n the name of art, it is time to party your ass off for a week straight yet again. Mi- ami Art Week is set to take over the city with a plethora of art fairs, gallery shows, and museum exhibitions — oh, and parties. Lots and lots of parties. While there are countless options as to where to blow off some creative steam this year, some of the best parties include a 24- hour blowout at Club Space, Tribeca’s take- over of the Miami Beach Botanical Garden, and Clockwork Music’s Legends Only event that certainly lives up to its name. Below are ten fail-safe party options for Miami Art Week 2023. Tribeca Festival Music Lounge at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden Let’s get down in the botanical garden? After last year’s takeover of Understory in Little River, Tribeca moves its activation closer to the action, taking over the Miami Beach Bo- tanical Garden across from Art Basel’s head- quarters at the convention center. Experimental singer-songwriter Eartheater and DJ Dangerous Rose performed on De- cember 7, but Tribeca will also host jazz drummer Yussef Dayes (December 7) and ex- perimental electronic artist Actress (Decem- ber 9). 8 p.m. Thursday, December 7, through Saturday, December 9, at Miami Beach Botani- cal Garden, 2000 Convention Center Dr., Mi- ami Beach; tribecafilm.com/ musicloungemiami.
