BAL HARBOUR– Bal Harbour Shops is making moves into the art world with the opening of The Fashion Project, a series of rotating exhibits that focuses on fashion and the world surrounding it, as curated by famed exhibition maker Judith Clark. (Here's our in-depth synopsis). The first exhibit opens this Friday, April 10, and focuses on fashion exploration through the years, from a 1913 ballet costume to a futuristic remote control dress. A Racked tipster revealed that Judith herself would be offering free tours on opening day from noon to 4pm, which you can score here. Act fast though– there's only a limited amount!

SOUTH BEACH– The spotlight has been on Miami City Ballet since January, when we announced that famed choreographer Justin Peck had created a 35-minute production for the company titled Heatscape, set in front of a Shepard Fairey designed backdrop. Well, you can catch the production this weekend at the Arsht Center during MCB's Points of Departure program, which brings the ballet season to a close. Tickets are $20, and the show starts at 8pm on Friday and Saturday, and at 2pm on Sunday.
