RE: "Architecture Week 1989"
(Concert in the Park October 27, 1989)
..~ .:
~ Dear Mr. Odio:
i The Miami Chapter of the American Institute ..of ...Ar.chit.ects. _ is
~ concluding the process of organizing a major community event
scheduled to be held October 27 through November 4, 1989.
"Architecture Week" as it is called, will focus on our built
I environment while highlighting Miami's positive image.
Our kick-off event will be called "Illuminate Miami". This
~ two-part event will include a reception for about 500
;j guests, to be held on the 33rd floor of the Miami Center
°! overlooking Bayfront Park, while a jazz concert will be in
`'` progress in the Amphitheater for our community to enjoy.
i
_''? The concert will be enhanced by a spectacular display of
lights and a laser show coordinated by Light-Up Miami, all
concluding with a fireworks display by Vitale Fireworks.
This will begin a week-long series of programs that will
address issues of the inner cities, growth management,
historic preservation, urban planning and ,-just ..plain -fun.
Enclosed is a schedule of events that gives you an insight
into the magnitude and quality of this major event. Also
enclosed is a revised budget with income and services
received to date. With the exception of Miami: The Evolution
of the City and the Beaux Arts Ball, (events co-hosted by
the AIA), all other events are free.
I have been fortunate to get sponsors for most of the
events. However, I need some help from the City of Miami,
to make this concert free to the community. I have raised
well over $30,000.00 to allow for the free concert and I
need the help to get the concert included.

INSTITUTE OF ARCHITECTS
I respectfully request a waiver of the costs for the use of
the Amphitheater estimated at $1,646.00. I also would like
to request a reduction of the insurance requirements for the
event.
Mr. Ira Katz has indicated to me that he has already used
the 30 days allotted for non-profit events. Therefore, if
there is any other way to get assistance I would certainly
appreciate it.
The New World of the Arts will provide the music, Light-Up
Miami will•provide the special lighting and laser show for
that evening and the AIA will provide the fireworks.
It would be great if the City of Miami would provide the
Amphitheater free of charge.
If this matter needs to be brought up before the commission,
please place it on th agenda for the October 26, 1989
meeting. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.
Since y,
Ca s uiz de Quevezio, A.I.A.

ReseNations cut- off date Fri. Oct 20.
The reasons given not to build in some of Miaml's inner city neighborhoods are
often repeated: crime, drugs, soCid unrest. The lack of politicd and economic
parity with other more affluent communities continues to make community
development and urban revitdization a dfficult process.
fie imperative to get involved and become committed to positive change >s
being embraced by many community leaders and institutions yet the overdi
process is cumbersome, mysterious and for the uninitiated, often futile. Severd
are wgang to share their experience and lead by example. ff is expected that
many important contacts and in~ghts wiff derive from this meeting, which is
hoped to be the first of a series of excur~ons to search out' examples of, and
opportunities for, regenerative processes at work in our community.
Ponef~ts:
Of high cdiber with an enlightened perspective on this issue are being sought,
including representatives from the field of community development, funding
organizations and specialists in community achffecture.
Please cdl Thorn Grafton, AIA, CoOrdnator, at 358.3232, or Nancy Dunlop, AlA Executive
