Florida’s Art Scene
When you think of California or New York, you think of Art. Their art scene are known nation wide. Mean while Florida, it doesn’t have anything. If you talk to anybody thats from Florida, they’ll all rep and brag about their home town “New York, Boston, Atlanta, etc”, but won’t say anything about Florida.
I want to change that. Florida is so culturally diverse, we have Haitians, Puerto Ricans, Columbians, Cubans, and people from all over the nation. If we all came together, we’d be able to make Florida into something great. I’m tired of hearing people saying how bad Florida is. WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MAKE IT BETTER. We’re so stuck on how good our home town is, that we fail to give Florida a chance.
I myself for a long time wanted to move back to Puerto Rico, and for a time even California. I wanted to be apart of their art scene.
But this is my mind set:
Why move? What, so you can JOIN them? Be apart in their movement. NO, I say we create our own movement.
I will be Collaborating with other artists to make “FLORIDA’s ART Scene” known. I believe we can do something big. So with that I leave you, you can comment on your thoughts.
I couldnt agree more.
Im from NY and while I think NY is pretty awesome in terms of art, I never want to move back there. I like the peacefulness of Florida and its a great place to raise a family.
I have a friend in NY who just graduated college for photography, she came down here on vacation looking for art.. The best I could offer her was the Orlando Museum of Art and Cafe Tutu Tango…
Artists should unite and make FL known for its diversity and art!
