If you’re in a surly mood, we suggest you avoid Miracle Mile for the next few days, because thanks to the 10th annual Carnaval on the Mile, the place is going to be crawling with happy people. And believe us, it’s contagious. The actual festival happens tomorrow and Sunday, but for today’s Kickoff Concert, Ponce Circle Park will be full of folks dancing to Latin jazz courtesy of performers like Conjunto Progreso, Hot 8 Brass Band, Soul Rebels, and Nil Lara.
Since tonight’s revelry coincides with the monthly Gables Gallery Night, art in all forms will be on display. From paintings and sculptures to photography, crafts, and jewelry, the wares will have you oohing and aahing over the exhibits while grooving to the tunes and sipping exotic wines. Best of all, each day of this high-end Hispanic jazz festival is completely libre. This chic block party will be jumping from 7 to 11. Visit www.carnavalmiami.com for more information and a schedule of activities.
Fri., March 7, 7-11 p.m., 2008
