About Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center
To honor the legacy of Commissioner Moss, the Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners has officially renamed the South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center to the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center.
Commissioner Dennis C. Moss has been an advocate for the arts for many years and was instrumental in the building of the Center. He served as a Miami-Dade County Commissioner from District 9 from 1993 to 2020 and is a strong supporter of the arts. His leadership and advocacy were essential in creating the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center, which provides the community of South Miami-Dade with opportunities to experience national and international artists in music, dance, and theater.
The renaming of the South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center to the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center was a fitting tribute to the contributions of Commissioner Moss. He understands the transformative effect that a new cultural arts center can have on the local economy and people’s lives, and this renaming is a testament to his dedication and vision.
Programs
The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.
Dance Classes
Since 2014 The Moss Center has been providing dance classes for children ages 7-16 as a means of fostering a lifelong love of dance and the arts to the youth in our community. Classes are intended to provide access to the arts and are offered to students who demonstrate financial need. Class offerings are varied and are offered in both the fall and the spring. Each 12-week class culminates in a performance on the main stage.
All Kids Included Family Arts Festival
The All Kids Included – Accessible Art Experiences for Kids (AKI) initiative was developed by the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs in 2006 with initial funding from The Children’s Trust. AKI creates inclusive arts and cultural programs so that kids of all abilities and their families can participate fully in the arts. Since 2011, The Moss Center has been the home of the AKI Field Trips and Festival Day that includes a full day of free programming for children with and without disabilities and their families. The Moss Center partners with local arts groups to provide interactive arts opportunities as well as national touring acts on our main stage.
