Miami, FL – August 24, 2013 – While Winter Music Conference, Ultra and Swim Week have long put Miami on the map as a fashion and nightlife hub, there is the one week in December that gives it cultural edge, unparalleled to any other city in the U.S. That week is, of course, Art Basel. Along with the endless parade of parties, galas and gallery shows, each year one event seems to top everyone’s must-attend list. It becomes the kind of event you’d raffle off your prized possessions (kids, home, car) for access to. With the opening of Pérez Art Museum Miami, named after the famed real estate mogul and art collector, Jorge Pérez, and designed by Herzog & de Meuron, happening this year, the museum’s annual gala is slated to be that coveted event. Securing its spot in the limelight is Marc Anthony‘s recent announcement to donate an intimate performance to the gala. Friends Anthony and Perez were photographed brunching at Zuma at EPIC Hotel on Saturday, while discussing the details of the event, which is slated to take place at the Perez Art Museum Miami in downtown Miami on December 7. In addition to the gala, PAMM will host a series of weeklong events celebrating the museum’s much-anticipated opening.
