Launch Miami Arte

I absolutely adore this place! I support shopping local and this is a great example! You can get anything and everything from fresh food to vintage apparel to doggie clothes. Lets not forget food trucks!
It is a great event to do on a Saturday. Inside tip: if you go enough times and show your face to your favorite stands, they might give you hook up when its time to purchase something. Thats what I do ;)
Another note: bring cash! Some vendors do accept credit cards but not all. You dont want to miss out on a great purchase because you forgot to pass by the ATM

I was very excited to find this… and I don’t know if it’s because it’s the last weekend… but this was quite lackluster. I think there was like 20 vendors max. I think there’s a lot of potential, and I would love for something in Miami to support the indie art and vintage scene… other than the flashy/​trashy scene… but this just wasn’t it. I think it could get there… let’s hope next fall it comes back and is a bit better.

This event is so awesome and super chill. It has some super unique vendors great food and I love the watch guys. This is a much needed event in Miami.

I found out about Launch Arte on both the Events section here and one of the other social sites and by the name I wasn’t sure if it was a magazine or an actual event site. B) is the correct answer, and what a cool little site it was. Located in the courtyard of an old church — which gave the cool vibe of lounge music in a church — Launch Arte is a cool way to spend an hour on Saturday.
While there, I had the pleasure of listening to a mash-​up of old school jazzed up hip hop, philosophical watches, and cool (though only ladieswear so far) cool clothes. A local (yes, Hialeahan) artist was exhibiting stenciled and computer graphics pieces and even had an area for YOU to exhibit your creative side. Unilocal even had a table, and I got me a Unilocal stick!:)
Foodwise, there were 3 of the Miami modern delicacies: Feverish Ice Cream (gotta try their mango ice cream, even if it’s a cold 60 degrees out), Jefe’s (their burgers look awesome), DoggiStyle (Chicken burgers, nice) and the Two Girls with their Cupcakes).
Looking forward to checking this out again!
