I was sorry to read that Carlos and Rosa De La Cruz don’t like the Miami Art Museum’s name change any more than do Mary and Howard Frank. Sadly, I don’t remember seeing a meaningful contribution from the De la Cruzes on the capital campaign roster.
All MAM wants is to build an extraordinary museum and create a world-class collection. By a vast majority, the MAM board voted in support of Jorge Perez’s incredible act of generosity and vision in helping us build a public art museum in downtown Miami. He has stepped up to provide a level of financial support many of us wish we could. By contributing art and dollars, he reminds us what this museum is all about and the opportunities that await our community when the new museum is complete.
