We are still reeling from our trip to Art Basel Miami Beach. In case you missed it, we took 10 designers from around the country around the entire Miami art scene for a 3 day guided tour. We went to the mother-ship fair (Art Basel Miami Beach) as well as various satellites, met dealers and artists, visited private rooms and dined in the most incredible garden oasis. We were proud to provide our guests/new best friends with VIP exposure to one of the art world’s biggest and most intimidating art scenes.
One of our guests wrote this about the trip:
“We want to reiterate how much we loved our experience with Mason Lane. Laura and Katharine are so knowledgeable and their passion for art is contagious. The trip was incredibly valuable to us. We can’t wait to go back next year with them and we would recommend the guided trip to anyone remotely interested in art and design on a personal or professional level”
