The Lucid Design District, founded by Payal Tak in 2021, serves as more than just an exhibition space—it is a cultural hub designed to foster connections and community through art. Located in the heart of Miami's Design District, Lucid is nestled among renowned institutions such as the de la Cruz Collection and the Institute of Contemporary Art, making it an essential stop for any Art Week itinerary. As Tak says, “Lucid was born out of a desire to connect with the community through collaborative art exchanges. Our goal is to create a space where creativity can flourish and where artists and art lovers can inspire one another.” “I believe that art matters. It serves as a conduit through which an artist's energy flows to the viewer, opening our minds and hearts to new perspectives on the world around us, including ourselves,” shares Payal Tak, owner of Lucid Design District and a participating artist. “At Lucid, creativity is ever-present. I invite art lovers to immerse themselves in this year’s exhibition and experience the boundless imaginations of our artists.” From the moment guests step into the gallery, they are enveloped in an atmosphere that invites curiosity and conversation. Live entertainment, artist activations, and thought-provoking installations are promoted by the Gallery and they create an environment where art is not just seen but felt. Lucid Design District’s 3,700-square-foot space is thoughtfully laid out to enhance the visitor experience. Its eight 'idea spaces', large reception area, and 75-foot outdoor installation wall provide artists with the ideal canvas to bring their visions to life.
