"In 2009, Frances Trombly and Leyden Rodriguez-Casanova recognized their fellow local creatives needed an experimental, artist-run project space. Rather than launching a venture with a solely commercial focus, the pair established Dimensions Variable in Downtown Miami – a showcase for new work by emerging and established artists.

You see, here they have a heap of waterways to test your skills and master the art of bobbing and not crashing into fellow kayakers. Trust me, that’s the biggest challenge… I always end up smacking into Yaya, which usually results in a few splashes from his paddle!"

"West Lake and its surrounding mangrove forest occupy the center of the park and are the domain of boaters and kayakers who put in from the ramps at the main entrance.

Other exhibits feature scale models of historic structures, including a recreation of a Seminole village complete with arts and crafts."

"Fort Lauderdale's rich history for African-Americans is presented in this inspiring museum. Many of the honors that are due to pioneers in the African-American community in Broward County are not recorded, but it is here through exhibits and lectures and special events that visitors and locals can learn more of this interesting and exciting chapter of local history. Built in 1924, this was the region's lone African-American school for children during segregation."
