Fort Lauderdale, FL, December 15, 2022 –(PR.com)– Fort Lauderdale Art & Design Week will be returning with its 5th Annual installment on January 21-29, 2023, with a focus on promoting the vast amount of cultural opportunities Broward County has to offer residents, collectors, dealers, art enthusiasts, and visitors. It has also become a platform for research and promotion of the arts, its relationship to the community, and discussions over contemporary art trends in the areas of the Arts, Architecture, Cinema, Dance, Music, and Theater.
The week, produced by UniteUs Group, will also help promote diversity, bring neighbors into dialogue, increase creativity, and offer opportunities to cultivate civic pride throughout the county and its burgeoning art scene.
