If you’re a foodie, you’ve likely heard of CSAs. Standing for “community supported agriculture,” it’s the handy acronym given to programs that sell shares of farms’ crops directly to consumers, putting farmers in closer contact with their customers in the process. Espousing a “think globally, eat locally” philosophy, CSAs help…
It was a better time, a simpler time. A time when we wore flannel and floral prints and combat boots. We smelled like Teen Spirit; we didn’t want no scrubs; we liked the way you worked it (no diggity). Those were the days when boy met world, when we were…
Remember that time geeks dressed as storm troopers took over the Miami Airport Convention Center? What about the bridal swimwear that walked the runway at Fashion Week Swim? Or the gold-plated, hundred-dollar-bill-covered bicycle at Wynwood Art Walk all those months ago?All year long, Cultist keeps you abreast of the most…
Friends, family members, and fellow lovers of quality boob tube-age: We are gathered here today to mourn the fallen. In this so-called golden age of television, some of our best-loved programming has been taken from us too soon. They’re high-quality TV shows, well-written and exquisitely acted. And now they’re gone,…
It’s hard out there for an artist, especially at this time of year. You have big dreams for your craft in the new year, but nearly no cash to make them come true, thanks to all the gifts you bought for those demanding loved ones of yours. Miami New Times…
It was the summer of 2010 and all was right in the basketball world, at least for fans of the Miami Heat. Wade was sticking around, and Bosh and LeBron were taking their talents to South Beach (or at least a short drive from there). The Big Three, the Three…
While we were busy watching the Miami Dolphins finally win a goddamn game on Sunday — in the snow, no less — the Carolina Panthers were showing off their sports film knowledge. The team ran the Fumblerooski, a trick play that’s seldom used but widely famous thanks to the movie…
Traditional Christmas parties are such a drag, usually resulting in awkward conversations with coworkers you never wanted to see outside of the office or the regrettable, booze-fueled antics of formerly estranged family members. So thank the sweet baby Jesus for Sketchy Miami. Its talented artists are channeling their holiday cheer…
It’s shaping up to be a great year for women actors. Bridesmaids, with its Golden Globes, Critics’ Choice and Screen Actors’ Guild award nominations, managed to end the annoying debate over whether women can be funny. (They can, duh.) Lead actor nominations for the ladies have gone to Glenn Close,…
Remember Honey, I Shrunk the Kids? It’s the movie that made every child of the ’80s fantasize about being an unwitting science experiment — even if it meant having a father like zany scientist Wayne Szalinski — so they could camp out in discarded Lego blocks and battle vicious scorpions…
Holiday travel sucks. When you’re traveling around Christmas, all the tired airport cliches come true: the screaming babies, the toddlers kicking the back of your seat, the rude TSA agents and the total and utter lack of personal space on any aircraft in operation. We’re not going to sugarcoat it…
Ah, wintertime. It’s the season of giving, the season of joy — unless you’re a film buff, in which case it’s the season of bemoaning awards snubs and studying up for your Oscars picks. The Academy Awards aren’t until Feb. 26, of course, but you’ve still gotta know about film’s…
Miami New Times has immediate openings for writers for the Night&Day calendar section and online culture blog, Cultist. For N&D, ideal candidates should be able to pen an event preview that is as enjoyable as the event itself. For the blog, we’re looking for any cultural coverage that showcases quality…
We Need To Talk About Kevin, a thriller centered on the messed-up relationship between a reluctant mother and her son with sociopathic tendencies, opens in theaters Friday. In it, critics say, the ever-freaky Tilda Swinton offers one of her most unsettling performances ever. And judging from the trailer, Ezra Miller,…
Art Basel is over, and the 1% have all gone back to The Hamptons or Dubai or their secret “rich people only” underground compounds where they’ll wait out the apocalypse. But don’t worry, Miami artists — New Times still loves you. We’re handing out our annual MasterMind awards again this…
When we first saw the words “Jersey Shore Shark Attack,” we immediately imagined that the Jersey Shore cast had returned to Miami for another season of embarrassing, drunken antics — and were tragically eaten alive in the waters of South Beach. (On-camera, one hoped.) It turns out that didn’t happen…
Goodbye, Nazi spaceships. Goodbye, freaky soundsuits. Goodbye, Andy Warhol, in all your many forms. It’s the final day of Art Basel, and the peak of Miami’s collective culture hangover. But you do know what cures a hangover, right? A little hair of the dog — aka another dose of the…
Can you feel it? It’s in the very back of your mind, but it’s there — that half-disappointed, half-relieved feeling that always hits you on Basel Saturday. It’s the realization that the annual Basel bacchanal will be over in just a couple days. Maybe you’re already Baseled out, ready for…
At long last, it’s Art Basel weekend: two glorious days when Miami’s poor nine-to-fivers finally get to fully experience the art, the parties and the insanity that the rest of us have been soaking up since Wednesday. But that’s not the only reason things are about to get even more…
Standing all day. Drinking all night. Roaming the streets for hours dressed in heels and strange getups. Art Basel is fun, but it can also take its toll. Still, a normal workout during Miami’s most faaahbulous week? It just doesn’t seem fitting. How can you relax knowing that you’re missing…
The front gallery space at Seven Miami is a room full of words. Walk in the doors, and you’ll naturally move from left to right to follow the text, from Bob and Roberta Smith’s corner, filled with colorfully painted signs telling a story, to William Powhida’s collection of notebook sketches…
If you happened to visit New York City last summer, you might have seen the street pianos, painted by New York artists, that popped up on the streets, free for all to play. The project, inspired by artist Luke Jerram and overseen by arts group Sing for Hope, inspired spin-off…
