Miami Circle Ensemble

As you know my day job is that of VP of Education and Visitor Services at HistoryMiami (formerly the Historical Museum of Southern Florida). Today was a big day at work, after 12 years of working on this project and about 1.5 years of construction---The Miami Circle (managed by HistoryMiami) opened to the public today.

I knew there'd be plenty of press (I did end up on the news on a few channels)...so I wanted to raise the bar 500% from yesterday's ensemble...(what do you think?) All in black and decked out in Kristin Pearce jewels, I think my mission was accomplished. Plus there were a good number of dignitaries and museum friends...so several reasons to look cute.

Above is a picture of me with my dear friend from work, la Doctora...and below pictures of the circle and the phase 1 masterplan drawing.

The Miami Circle is an ancient Tequesta Indian site and today it is part of a passive park on the mouth of the Miami River and is now officially open to the public to enjoy.

    So excited about the Miami Circle news, esp. after my research last year. I have to visit. What are the black rock/slate pieces about in the circle?

    Thank you ladies!

    @Marie- the slate pieces denote where the holes are in the circle.
