Save the date! On Saturday, Nov. 1, Beaux Arts will celebrate its 73rd annual ball benefitting the Lowe Art Museum.
As Miami’s longest-running and most anticipated costume ball, themed “Midnight in the Jungle,” the 2025 event will take place at The Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove, where guests will gather for a fun and philanthropic night, with all proceeds benefiting free admission to the University of Miami’s Lowe Art Museum and Beaux Arts’ educational programs.
With lush, tropical-themed décor and jungle-inspired attire, Beaux Arts will bring the “Midnight in the Jungle” theme to life, complete with a live band and delicious themed food and cocktails. The attendees’ always over-the-top costumes will steal the show during the annual costume contest. This year’s ball is chaired by Ansley Campbell.
Guests will have the opportunity to bid on luxurious silent auction and raffle items in support of Beaux Arts’ mission.
“We’re incredibly proud to celebrate our 73rd annual Beaux Arts Ball. As Miami’s oldest costume ball, we are deeply grateful to our supporters and sponsors who join us year after year for a festive evening that raises vital funds for arts education,” said Francesca Valdes, Beaux Arts president 2025–26. “This time-honored tradition brings our community together in support of the Lowe Art Museum and the children’s arts education programs run by Beaux Arts’ dedicated volunteers. We look forward to celebrating with our members, friends, and generous sponsors.”
For more than seven decades Beaux Arts has been committed to expanding arts education, appreciation and access in South Florida. Through the organization’s signature outreach programs, HandsOn! and Student Artist Showcase, thousands of children from underserved communities have been introduced to the world of art. Additionally, Beaux Arts’ support of the Lowe Art Museum at the University of Miami each year allows the museum to offer free admission to all patrons year-round.

Themes vary widely, from “Empire State of Mind,” “Out of this World,” to “Fire & Ice,” and the creativity of costumes makes each year a unique experience.
