6th Edition of the Feria de Sevilla en Miami
The Feria de Sevilla in Miami is a platform that celebrates and promotes the rich cultural heritage of Andalusia, actively connecting the local community with one of Spain’s most vibrant traditions.
Inspired by the iconic Feria de Abril, this festival offers live flamenco music, dance, traditional cuisine, beautifully decorated casetas, and an immersive cultural experience where art, heritage, and commerce come together.
This year, the fair moves to Coral Gables, a sister city to Seville that shares its Mediterranean charm and architectural elegance. The event aims to strengthen cultural and economic ties between Spain and Florida, raising awareness of Andalusian heritage in the region while creating opportunities for networking, promotion, and immersive experiences for attendees.

The intervention of the Meninas
In celebration of Spanish culture and the Feria de Sevilla, the Coral Gables Museum is proud to present a special artistic initiative featuring two Menina sculptures. These sculptures will be creatively transformed by Red Thread Art Studio, a collective of women artists based in Coral Gables known for their expertise in textile arts and visual storytelling.
Rather than traditional painting, the artists will “dress” the Meninas using innovative textile techniques, adding a unique and dynamic dimension to the project. The finished sculptures will debut at Gallery Night on March 8 and will also be showcased at the Museum’s caseta during the Feria de Sevilla in Miami.
As part of this meaningful initiative, the Meninas will be auctioned or sold to support the Florida Cancer Specialists Foundation, powerfully blending art, culture, and philanthropy.
