A Show for Miami Artists Who Haven’t Shown... Yet.
About the Exhibition
First Time will be a 2026 group exhibition centered on the vulnerability of being seen for the first time.
The show highlights artists who have never exhibited their work publicly and are ready to move their practice from the private realm into public space.
About the Curator
I’m Cait Agostinho, an emerging independent curator based in Miami.
My previous experience has been in advertising, marketing, and art direction where I’ve generated millions of dollars in revenue for clients in the aesthetics industry through strategy, storytelling, and visibility.
First Time will mark my debut as a curator and is intentionally shaped as the kind of opportunity I believe should exist more often: where early career artists are taken seriously, supported professionally, and introduced to an audience with care.
A first exhibition is often the hardest to secure and this is designed to make that step possible. This project is designed as a shared beginning (mine as a curator, and yours as an exhibiting artist).
