As our Magic City prepares to welcome the world for Miami Art Week, I welcome my friend Cathy Leff, Executive Director of the Bakehouse Art Complex, to this November episode. We explore how this historic bakery-turned-arts hub is becoming a national model for affordable artist housing, public greenspaces, and community-rooted creativity. Cathy shares the vision behind Bakehouse’s evolution, the $2 million restoration project she helped bring to life, and how public-private partnerships are keeping Miami’s creative spirit alive and accessible. This conversation is a joyful, thought-provoking reminder that the most meaningful cultural movements often begin right in our own neighborhoods.
