He shares, “As the Creative Director of American Express Platinum, I am excited to be in Miami – my second home – performing for Card Members and celebrating Art Week here at Platinum House. There is no better time or place for us come together again in support of the arts. As we did with Yellow Ball in September, proceeds from this special concert will again benefit the incredible organization, Young Audiences Arts for Learning.”
Expanding its footprint beyond Platinum House, this year American Express Platinum brought late-night food trucks by Global Dining Collection Chef José Andrés to the Wynwood and Design Districts.
