One of his latest project is a collaboration with the Homeless fund and features parking meters in bright yellow with colorful patterns. Tourists be aware, the money collected is not actually to pay for parking but rather to be used in a fund for the Homeless cause in Miami.
Be generous and enjoy the new addition of Britto's design to South Beach.
Thanks Suzie, I'm really enjoying your posts, wonder how many of those are in South beach, we used to feed the homeless by lincon road, at least 25 men and women leaving among the pricey stores and restaurants, the other face of this famous tourist attraction.
ReplyDeleteThank you. The way the program works is that businesses have to sponsor the cause and pay $1,000 upfront investment to have the meters installed, so you will slowly see them pop up accross town. I applaude your work in helping to feed the homeless and hopefully this initiative will benefit them as well by giving the money to real homeless not panhandlers.
