Museo Vault opens in the Wynwood Art District

MUSEO VAULT opened in the heart of the Wynwood Arts District, a well-deserved state of the art museum quality storage facility. Wynwood area visionary David Lombardi and investor's saw the need for a facility that specializes in the highest needs of museums, galleries, private collections, estates, and households like no other to ensure precious objects are stored with the highest degree of care and safety.

MUSEO VAULT, aside from having a superb facility and staff of museum-trained professionals, also houses MUSEO VAULT PROJECT ROOM at the entrance of the property to showcase local artist. The first artist to debut at the gallery was Miami's own Tony Chimento, in a one man show, exhibiting paintings dating as far back as 1979.

Among the esteemed list of VIP's at the opening party: Wynwood pioneers' Don and Mera Rubell, Tony Goldman, Joey Goldman, Dennis Peters, and RED DOT Art Fair's Ilana Vardy.

Museo Vault follows the guidelines and standards of the American Association of Museums and requirements of fine art insurance standards in the state of Florida.

Joey's restaurant opens in Wynwood

Another great vision has come to Wynwood, Joey's Italian cafe. Joey Goldman, son and partner of visionary Tony Goldman, opens his first restaurant in the Wynwood Arts District, located at 2506 N.W. 2 Avenue.

The Goldman's are known for bringing magic to distress urban areas like they have in New York's Meatpacking district, Wall Street, SoHo, and South Beach. Now it's Wynwood's turn. They own 20 commercial properties, including a property they donated Goldman Warehouse to the Museum of Contemporary Art.




During Art Basel week, the restaurant opened its doors, with a ribbon cutting by Miami Mayor Manny Diaz. Also at the VIP opening, Joey and Thea Goldman, Tony and Janet Goldman, Scott Srebnick and wife Jessica Goldman-Srebnick, Terra Group developer Pedro Martin, Haute Living magazine publisher Kamal Hotchandani, Forge owner Shareef Malnik, another Wynwood visionary Dennis Peters, Art magnet Gary Nadar, publicist Larry Carino and Susan Brustman, Joey's GM Simone Cattaneo and nightlife businessman Michael Capponi.

A modern italian food restaurant, with 40 seats inside and 35 on an outdoor terrace, serves great dishes like salad of radicchio and bacala ($10), classic pizza Margherita ($8), and our favorite, lamb chops with a juniper berry reduction served with polenta ($24) created by celebrated chef Ivo Mazzon.





In late July, the Miami City Commission approved a special district, designed to give the area an economic boost and allowing 25 liquor licenses to operate within the district to sale alcoholic beverages by restaurants, bars, and nightclubs.

Amazing wine list, ambience, affordable and a true Italian café experience.

Joey’s Italian serves lunch Monday – Friday and dinner Monday - Saturday. Valet parking available. 305-438-0488.

Sometime next year Joey Goldman hopes to open a French-Vietnamese, nearby.
