KIDS JAMM at PAMM
Miami, FL – October 27, 2019 – Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) celebrated KIDS JAMM at PAMM, the museum’s first-ever family fundraiser, presented by Centner Academy. Benefiting the museum’s vital arts education programs, the sold-out event invited families to connect with the museum through music, dancing, and art-making activities with some of Miami’s best-known artists. Co-chaired by Suzy Buckley Woodward, Jessica Plair Sirmans, and Alexa Wolman, the event kicked off with a lively drag queen story hour by Missy Meyakie LePaige, one of Miami’s favorite drag queens. Story hour continued throughout the afternoon with Miami personalities like former NFL player Brett Romberg and chef Lorena Garcia. The event also featured dancing and live music, including special performances by Miami City Ballet School and Ashlee Cramer Zumbini. Children and adults also enjoyed a variety of inclusive art-making activities that encouraged artistic expression, including postcard souvenirs with Eddie Arroyo, printmaking with Michele Oka Doner, a sculpture workshop with Jamilah Sabur, and a pottery throwdown with Kira Tippenhauer. Throughout the day, guests were able to refuel at a snack station by Constellation Culinary Group. All funds raised from the event support PAMM’s free access days and the PAMM Student Pass, which gives free access to PAMM for all Miami-Dade County Public Schools students.
