    This event was in the Freedon Tower. Well known to Cubans who immigrated to the US. It's the equivalent to Ellis Island for Europeans that inmigrated.

    A very fine space for exhibitions. Check out the current exhibition of Lydia Cabrera Where the Oceans Meet

    I gather that the exhibits change somewhat frequently, but at the time we visited, there was no exhibits at all devoted to design, which was disappointing. (The Cooper Hewitt Design Museum is one of my very favorite places, and I was hoping this might be similarly cool.) The museum had a bit of a schizophrenic feel in that the first floor was devoted exclusively to the Cuban emigrant experience and specifically Operation Pedro Pan, and then the second floor was art. It wasn't really clear how the two tied together. That said, the historical exhibit was interesting and well done.

    A quaint museum with some interesting pieces. It’s free on Sundays and worth a quick stroll to check it out if you’re around the area. I wouldn’t go out of the way for this Muesum though.

    Small two floor museum but packed with modern artworks, in an artfully beautiful garden. Detailed descriptions of the artworks and synopsis of the artists’ lives are much appreciated. Not to be missed in Miami!

    We went to go to to visit the Freedom Tower not know they had an art museum on the 2nd floor. Interesting history and art exhibit.

    The staff was very inviting. We felt very welcomed. The environment inspires creativity we had fun doing our activities with the kids. The exhibits was well displayed and tge staff was very knowledgeable about the artwork and it's artist. I look forward to going back.

    Great historic building and informative displays. I really wanted to go to the 2 floor exhibit as well however did not want to leave my bag at the counter. Looks cool though. Check out the mural of the map of the world. Very well done.

    Expected more, but I loved it. Free on Sundays and free parking too. Not bad to stop by on a Sunday afternoon and you just want to disconnect from the busy streets.

    I could go here a few times and not see everything! Well, I came here twice and saw a few different pieces! They rotate the pieces of art and some of what I saw last time were not on show this time! For instance, the enclosed aquarium will contain basketballs or a sheep. It keeps things interesting and new when they change out various pieces.

    went to the Museum of Art design better known as the MOAD -I think it's operated by Dade College.  it's in a historic building - the first floor of the museum is pretty boring mostly civil rights stuff - important but as they say "been there done that" way too many times - my eyes start to gloss over . 2nd floor is mostly like modern art - kind of unique &  it is free or actually they request a donation -not sure if it's mandatory whatever that means (that has always confused me)  and he said he'd let me in free if I agreed to have my picture taken which seemed strange & I don't care but nobody that I recall ever actually took my picture 😱

    A really great museum of modern art. Pro tip: it's free! I highly recommend reserving tickets ahead of time. I was lucky enough to get a time slot the day before. The only caveat is to arrive no more than 30 minutes from the time slot on your ticket otherwise you loose the spot and have to wait on the standby line.

    I enjoyed this place. They are friendly and I found it very interesting.

    My family really enjoyed the exhibit The Body Electric and the scope and quality of it was mind-boggling. The venue at Museum of Art and Design is so big it makes and exhibit like this possible where it could never fit at Pamm

    What I love most about Museum of Art and Design @ MDC is it's size. Some Museums can feel huge and overwhelming, but Museum of Art and Design @ MDC feels intimate and manageable. No need to rush around to see everything they have to offer. Being free is a nice perk.
