Creativo Marks Six Years with a Sensual, High-Style Anniversary at Miami Art Week

Creativo marked its sixth anniversary on December 5, 2025, transforming a waterfront home in Belle Meade into one of Miami Art Week’s most anticipated nighttime events. The gathering has become a defining fixture of the city’s creative landscape, uniting art, music, fashion, technology, and science under one roof. This edition drew about 750 guests, selected from more than 12,000 RSVPs.

The theme, “Jump on It,” paid tribute to the 30th anniversary of Ginuwine’s 1996 hit Pony, a song that has sustained its cultural relevance through decades of film, nightlife, and R&B nostalgia. The cowboy-inspired dress code produced a visually striking crowd, with guests embracing variations of hats, boots, and Western silhouettes — a reflection of the community’s commitment to the event’s playful, expressive ethos.

Producer Sasha Bernier described Creativo as “a true celebration of creatives and artists,” noting its role as a meeting point for multiple creative disciplines.


Music for the night was led by two women DJs. Jessica Mah of Los Angeles — a venture capitalist, tech founder, and DJ — delivered an intense, high-energy EDM set. Miami-based DJ Zuleika Najar followed with a blend of electronic remixes of 80s and 90s classics layered with her signature Latina influence.

The evening’s centerpiece was a pair of fashion presentations that combined luxury design with philanthropy.

Designer Cassandra Youngs showcased custom couture with a runway moment featuring Isabella, a young heart-defect survivor, and pageant titleholder Eddah Wanyoike. Isabella also exhibited her artwork, sharing the sentiment that inspired her pieces: “I can’t see the heart… but I can feel it.”

The runway then shifted to a vintage showcase by Janet Mandell, whose boutiques in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York are known for rare high-end archival fashion. Fifteen models presented gowns from labels including Cavalli and Chanel, with many pieces valued around $20,000.


R&B artist Evans closed the night with live performances that aligned seamlessly with the event’s theme. His rendition of Ginuwine’s Pony — followed by covers of Justin Timberlake’s Until the End of Time and Ne-Yo’s Closer — energized the crowd and highlighted his rising presence in Miami’s music scene.

Guests enjoyed Mediterranean dishes from Sufrat, including kebabs, hummus, and other regional specialties. Creativo also acknowledged support from partners including Barcelo Rum, Pink Sands, Lalo Tequila, Neau Water, Strega, Askur Gin, Helix Vodka, SWAF beer, and Voga Italia.


Creativo has solidified its position as a major cultural moment during Miami Art Week, consistently expanding its vision and audience impact. The creative community now looks ahead to the group’s next event during the upcoming F1 race weekend.
