Giralda Plaza shows off colorful Umbrella Sky
Umbrella Sky is now part of Giralda Plaza in Coral Gables.
I've seen this project online over the years and thought this would be perfect for Fuller Street or the Mayfair Promenade in the Grove. It consists of hundreds of colorful umbrellas hanging over the plaza. The Umbrella Project was presented to the pubic at a ceremony on Friday night.
The umbrellas will sway over Giralda Plaza until the end of summer.
Coral Gables is the first city in South Florida and the third city in the U.S. to host the Umbrella Sky art project, an internationally recognized public art display that has taken part in Paris and Lisbon.
“This captivating art project is a great example of our commitment to increase art and cultural experiences in the City Beautiful,” said Coral Gables Mayor Raúl Valdés-Fauli. “Umbrella Sky will undoubtedly drive more people into our downtown, but we hope they stay to dine and shop while here.”
Umbrella Sky is the creation of Portuguese Company, Sextafeira, which means Friday in Portuguese.
