Pedrido Arte Gallery & Studio

Pedrido Arte Gallery and Studio opened on Miracle Mile as one of the newer additions to Coral Gables’ gallery scene, quickly establishing itself as a venue built specifically around emerging and established contemporary artists rather than the historical or masters focused inventory found at some of the boulevard’s older galleries. Since opening, the gallery has mounted a steady stream of themed group exhibitions, including a recent black and white show exploring music, spirituality, and emotion through the work of multiple contemporary artists, the kind of curatorial concept that gives each visit a distinct reason to come back.

Local press coverage, including features in the Biscayne Bay Tribune and regular mentions in Coral Gables Gazette coverage of the city’s monthly Gallery Night, has followed the gallery’s exhibitions closely since it opened, describing a space that treats each show as a genuine curatorial project rather than a simple rotation of inventory. The gallery has also hosted workshops open to the public, reflecting the studio half of its name, positioning Pedrido Arte as a place for making art as well as viewing and buying it, a combination that is less common among the more purely commercial galleries nearby.

Being located on Miracle Mile puts Pedrido Arte in Coral Gables’ busiest retail and dining stretch, giving it strong foot traffic from people who might not have set out specifically to visit an art gallery. That accessibility, combined with an active exhibition calendar that keeps pace with Coral Gables’ Gallery Night schedule, has helped the gallery build a genuine local following relatively quickly compared to some of its more established neighbors.

Because Miracle Mile’s exact address numbering has been difficult to confirm through standard mapping services, visitors are encouraged to check current hours and the gallery’s own listings before a visit, though its presence and programming on this stretch of Coral Gables are well documented through consistent local press coverage and the gallery’s own website and social media. For anyone interested in seeing where Coral Gables’ contemporary art scene is heading rather than only where it has been, Pedrido Arte’s steady run of fresh, concept driven group shows makes it one of the more actively watched newer galleries in the neighborhood, and its workshops offer a rare hands on option among Miracle Mile’s otherwise mostly browse and buy storefronts. That combination of exhibition space and working studio gives visitors two distinct reasons to return, one to see what is newly on the walls and another to actually make something themselves.
