About Bakehouse Art Complex

The Bakehouse Art Complex is a non-profit arts organization that stands at the heart of South Florida's bustling arts scene, where it has been a beacon of creativity and collaboration for nearly four decades.

We host an artists’ residency program. We offer studios at an affordable price. We build community. We are a haven. We are the creative spirit of Miami.

Our name “Bakehouse” nods to the history of our building (originally an Art Deco-era industrial bakery) where we offer the highest level of artistic creativity, development, and artistic collaboration for the most promising talent.

Our community comprises over 100 resident and associate artists with a rich diversity of cultures, languages, and artistic practices — painting, sculpture, printmaking, metal and woodworking, photography, digital/interactive media, performance art, even history.

Our programs focus on nurturing artists by supporting the creation and exhibition of new work. We organize professional and creative development programs and workshops, coordinate studio visits, support community outreach efforts, and host classes.

If you haven’t visited us before, we encourage you to attend one of our twice-annual Open Studios, where we welcome the community to meet and engage with our artists. We are open daily for public visitation daily from 12 PM to 5 PM.

And if you’d like to learn more about us, we are always excited to chat more about our plans to build a strong and sustainable ecosystem in Miami where artists and the arts can thrive. A master plan is currently underway to determine the highest and best use of our impressive 2.3-acre campus to better serve the needs of Miami’s cultural community.
