Art Basel Miami Beach is fast approaching and so is the accompanying onslaught of contemporary art, jaded socialites, scary price tags and free champagne (that's not for you.) Though the fair doesn't officially begin until December 4, festivities will be taking over the city of Miami beginning early this week.
Whether you're mapping out your itinerary for an ABMB IRL experience or planning to live vicariously through your social media feeds, we're here to help.
