“The purpose of this art is to inspire us, heighten our emotions and give us a visceral experience,” said Artistic Director and CEO Nick Mullikin. “Sometimes these stories reach into the depths of struggle, sorrow and how someone can be lost in the spiraling of addiction. But these stories also bring to light how strength can be discovered, how support can be shared, and how there is grace and profound beauty in the journey of recovery.”

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars today announced the North American debut of Black Badge Spectre at the second annual Moda Miami 2025, the ultimate gathering of luxury car collectors in North America. The newest addition to the Rolls-Royce family made its debut at an exclusive dinner on the lawn of the historic Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, Florida.
