WELCOME TO MIAMI

Now more than ever, Miami is earning a name as an international, multicultural capital. The greater Miami area is a fusion of culture, tradition, and international flavor indigenous to the region.

The city’s unique connection and close proximity to its Latin American neighbors brings many rich traditions, festivals, and international cultures to the local community, making Miami not only a great place to live, but also a wonderful, multicultural experience.

Due in part to its Latin American and Hispanic connection, Miami has become a base of operations for hundreds of companies looking to gain an economic foothold in these growing markets. As Miami continues to develop and grow as a city, so does its economy and its status as an international player.

The arts, fashion, and design also thrive in Miami. Each year, the City of Miami hosts Art Basel, the winter equivalent of the world’s largest art show held in Basel, Switzerland. Artists, art dealers, galleries, and museums come from all over the world to exhibit throughout Miami during Art Basel.

Miami is known for its miles of beautiful beaches and for being the winter home of countless celebrities as well as the background set for multiple movies and television hits such as CSI Miami. The area is also home to several professional sports teams, venues, and attractions such as the Historic Art Deco District of South Beach, the Design District, Wynwood Art District, and Coconut Grove.

Vibrant, multicultural, and rapidly growing, Miami is a city like none other. Miami International University of Art & Design, its student body, and its faculty reflect Miami’s diversity, commitment to the growth of the arts, and reputation as a center of international commerce and success.
