NATIONAL ARTS MARKETING PROJECT CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS        Miami, FL; Nov 15-18

Called the “Gateway to Latin America” the area’s population is 60 percent Hispanic, made up of Cubans, Nicaraguans, Colombians, Puerto Ricans, and Venezuelans—all influencing the city’s rich cultural offerings. Considered an international hub, Miami has reached a sophistication to with hip Miami Beach at its heart boasting a classic Art Deco District and North Beach’s Miami Modern architecture.

 

In downtown Miami, a mélange of neighborhoods welcome visitors including the Cuban-inspired Little Havana, the art-driven Design District, architecturally rich Coral Gables, and the laid-back beachfront community of Coconut Grove. The area’s tropical climate makes it a year-round destination.

 

Speakers will explore topics of accessibility, digital marketing, analytics, cultural tourism, destination marketing, audience development, audience engagement, data-driven targeted marketing strategies and much more. Preconferences are still in development for this event.

 

Do let me know if you have any questions.
