Phillyist Does Mojitofest

Last night, Phillyist was invited to Mojitofest at G Lounge, where there were drinks, competition, drinks, a light up wall of multi-colored squares, and more drinks. Looking back on our night of debauchery and muddled mint, we are eager to share the experience: the highs, the lows, and most importantly, the drinks!

PHILLY IS HOSTING THE OLYMPICS!

Its official, Philadelphia is hosting the Olympics.

Thelma Grobes Yellow DogIn the course of the last few years, the first weekend in December now sees the art world (and we mean the entire art world on a planetary scale), descend on the Greater Miami, Florida region for an astounding number of art fairs featuring tens of thousands of artists, all anchored by the Art Basel Miami Beach fair. About 25 "satellite" art fairs have popped up all over the Miami region in the last half decade, and as a result, art collectors, curators and art symbiots from all over the world hang around Miami visiting art fairs, absorbing and buying art, soaking up the sun and sand, eating Cuban food (and discovering that black beans are never, ever served together with the white rice but in separate bowls, and that a true mojito is made with guarapo (sugar cane juice)). We wish all of the Philadelphia galleries partipating in the art fairs (Pentimenti, Projects and a few others), the best of luck in Eff-LA, and please bring us back some tostones.
