The GrassRoots Festival of Music and Dance, and The Virginia Key Beach Park Trust have joined as partners.
We are uniting to promote the natural and historic value of Virginia Key’s Beach Park while they help us to further our vision of music, arts and sustainability for Miami. This natural partnership evolved from the first annual Virginia Key GrassRoots Festival and the park’s amazing level of support for our organization.GrassRoots echoes this commitment by promoting the venue, bringing Miami to Virginia Key and building networks of support toward museum projects on-site. The Historic Virginia Key Beach Park holds a venerable place in the social and civil rights movements of our country: The perfect site to host a creative, and culturally diverse gathering.
The GrassRoots Festival will continue to develop our relationship with the Virginia Key Beach Park Trust as both of our organizations evolve. Together we work to benefit the cultural offerings of Miami, the interaction between music and art, and the environment of one of Miami’s natural treasures: Virginia Key!
Virginia Key GrassRoots aims to engage Miami. We provide a venue for community building, and in that spirit have joined with the following Miami organizations, creating this festival together!
