Displays of beautiful images, an eager crowd of Miami’s finest, copious hors d’oeuvres, and generous pours of wine all combine to make Gallery Night in Coral Gables one of the area’s best. The neighborhood knows how to make art lovers feel welcome and satisfied, even down to the free trolley that transports patrons of local culture along Ponce de Leon Boulevard and Miracle Mile. After browsing the rest of what the Gables has to offer, cap off your evening at Books & Books for live music and the opening of a remarkable photography exhibit.

Juan Martin’s exhibition “From the Land of Dreams” features eye-catching black-and-white photography laden with images of vibrant Cuban-American culture. Martin sits on the board of the National Art Exhibitions of the Mentally Ill, and his experience in organizing a noteworthy showcase is obvious in his debut display. The jazzy Oriente Trio will hold court for the wine sippers and magazine browsers outside. Stop by tonight between 7:00 to 10:00. Call 305-442-4408, or visit www.booksandbooks.com.
