Arts Encounters' expert guides lead groups through a curated selection of contemporary and modern art exhibits, introducing artists and galleries from around the world while illuminating diverse styles, materials and themes.

Art Basel Miami Beach Saturday, December 5, 11 am - 5 pm.

Arts Encounters conducts a guided tour of Art Basel, sharing insiders' perspectives on trends and highlights culled from thousands of artworks brought by galleries from 32 countries – sparing you the challenges of independently navigating 267 booths, driving and parking – with roundtrip transportation.
