Rockin’ and Rollin’
Faena Art added a touch of disco to Miami’s popular III Points independent music festival in February with an artist-designed roller skating rink open to the public.
The sixth annual III Points festival held at Mana Wynwood each year is known for creating a sensory party that combines music, art and technology, while blending a wide range of genres, everything from indie rock to neo-soul and punk to electronica.
As a locally built and funded festival, our mission is to be a platform for our homegrown community of artists and bring like minded bands to Miami who wouldn’t come otherwise
—festival co-founder, David Sinopoli.
