Introducing RACC to the Russian American community in Miami

After the sensational success of the RACC's 20th century stage design exhibition Homage to Diaghile’s Enduring Legacy and 2009 Annual GALA & Performance at the Ana Tzarev Gallery, RACC's board members undertook an initiative to extent RACC programming to serve the ever-growing Russian American community in Miami.

The Miami event - RACC's introduction by RACC Board member Lana Ratner and talk by Regina Khidekel, the RACC founding director, on December 8, 2009 coincided with the Art Basel Miami Beach week. This international art festival which transforms Miami in one of the world art centers, energizes and encourages curiosity and attention to arts by its multicultural population including our community's fast learners. It was noticed that the fair was lacking works of the Russian American artists and questions were raised.

We hope very much that the exhibitions, literary and performing events that are conceptualized and realized by RACC in New York, could be soon enjoyed and appreciated by the Russian American community of Miami.
