Wolfsonian-FIU

Address 1001 Washington Avenue, Miami Beach

A museum of decorative and propaganda arts housed in a beautifully restored 1927 storage facility on Washington Avenue. The collection — over 180,000 objects spanning 1850 to 1950 — covers furniture, industrial design, political posters, architectural models, and books, all focused on how design shapes and reflects political and social movements. The exhibitions are consistently thoughtful and well-curated. It is one of the most interesting museums in South Florida and far less crowded than it deserves to be.
