Miller Beach Arts & Creative District Cdc

The objective of the District is to create a diverse, welcoming, and vibrant cultural destination for the visual, performing and culinary arts as a catalyst for community regeneration, sustainability and livability.  

Restaurants, arts related retail stores, galleries, dance studios, studio space (live/work) and entertainment venues are a few of the planned economic development ventures in the District.  The District is a 501 (c) 6 organization operating as a community development corporation.
