For over 40 years, the Art Services Division of the Miami-Dade Public Library System has acquired, developed, and maintained works for the Library’s Permanent Art Collection of over 7,000 works of art. Installed in 49 of the Library’s 50 locations, it has earned national respect as an important reference collection that chronicles social, cultural, and artistic change in Miami. Our local library has been at the forefront of Arts Advocacy in South Florida, a community that now hosts the largest art fairs in the Western Hemisphere - Art Basel Miami Beach and Miami Art Week.
