🏛️ Miami’s cultural legacy is on the line.
On Thursday, July 24, 2025, the City of Miami will vote to give away the historic Olympia Theater — our beloved Gusman — to a for-profit charter school for just $10.
For nearly a century, the Olympia Theater has stood as a pillar of Miami’s arts, culture, and history. From Nina Simone to Elvis, it has been a sacred stage for music, cinema, theater, and community memory. In 2017, voters approved $20 million through the Miami Forever Bond to preserve this landmark. So why is it being handed away — quietly, and without public input?
This building is not just old — it’s irreplaceable. Giving it away threatens to erase a space that generations have cherished and that future artists deserve to inherit.
🎠Let’s protect this living monument of creativity and history.
