Founded by sculptor Ellie Schneiderman in 1984, ArtCenter/South Florida on Lincoln Road in Miami Beach is credited as being an important catalyst for the revitalization of Lincoln Road and its surrounding areas. The nonprofit organization focuses on artist residencies and visiting artists programs, providing affordable studio spaces and exhibition opportunities to more than 1,000 visual artists, while also offering art classes and outreach programs to the community. The center also includes the Audiotheque, an intimate space available to experience experimental music and other musical genres, and a PRINTshop for digital photography and silkscreen printmaking.
