Copperbridge Foundation is pleased to have had Olivia Almagro present her new book, ‘Christmas in April.’ The book reading and discussions focused on a family that comes to America via the Marielito boatlift, a topic that carries a special history in Miami culture. If you weren’t able to attend, we will announce a series of Olivia Almagro book lectures, and we will keep you informed. For those interested in purchasing the book, it is available at our Copper Gallery Gift Shop at the Copper. Special note Olivia is a NOMI resident . Proud of our Community!!!! Come to NoMi !!! @od1390

The Community Art Workshop held at The Copper on Saturday, led by Lola Heasley, created a space where creation was a form of listening—connecting us to nature, memory, and one another. It was a quiet, suspended afternoon—filled with small gestures, shared stories, and moments that reached something deeper. There were tears. There was silence. And a kind of beauty that’s almost impossible to name. Lola’s work doesn’t just stay on the canvas—it becomes something you feel. In that shared space, something truly shifted. Thank you to everyone who held this moment with us. Stay close

North Miami Centennial Trolley Tour lead by Council man Kevin Burns , which visited highlights like the Copperbridge Foundation headquarters, the Czech Club, the W.J. Bryant Elementary School building, and MOCA, was truly amazing. We had over 55 participants, all immersed in North Miami’s rich history, architecture, and culture. The day concluded with a fascinating history lecture on Griffin Park Estates and the La Victoria project, and the importance of the Miami Design Preservation League mission . @lavictoriamiami @mdpl1976 @vote4kevinburns @memearte @geo.darder @nomicra @mocanomi @noelsuarezartist_miami @volunteercleanup @sarahleddick
