Gazitua appointed to Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County Arts Board

I am deeply honored to serve asMiami-Dade CountyCommissioner Roberto J. Gonzalez's appointee to theAdrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade CountyArts Board. This world-class institution is a cornerstone of Miami’s cultural landscape, and being part of its mission is truly inspiring.

This appointment is especially meaningful to me. As a staff member to then-Mayor Carlos Alvarez, I had the privilege of contributing to the administration that completed this iconic project. My connection to the Arsht Center runs even deeper: my father,Ralph L. Gazitua, served under the leadership of ChairmanJ. Ricky Arriolato help establish a deep community connection for the Center. Today, my brotherSean Gazituaproudly serves on the board alongside my dear friendJorge Plasencia.

Finally, a heartfelt thank you to Adrienne Arsht herself for her generosity and kindness when she invited my daughter Cara Isabella to be her honored guest at the Arsht Center ball. This followed Cara’s special presentation at St. Philip’s Episcopal School, where she highlighted Adrienne’s immense contributions to our community in business and philanthropy. Cara truly felt like a princess that night, creating a memory she will cherish forever.

Serving on this board feels like a full-circle moment, uniting family, friendships, and a shared passion for arts and culture in Miami. I am truly blessed to be part of this incredible journey.

Thank you, Commissioner Gonzalez!
