Miami Art Scene™ wishes the dynamic duo Wifi and Danny the best of luck, we know for certain that The LAB will continue forging ahead with amazing creative, tech and entrepreneurial events and projects. “This shouldn’t be a sad moment, but an exciting one to challenge a new leader in the community to lead the next iteration of the space in Wynwood. It’s a LAB. It’s an experiment in its own right and a place for others to experiment with new ideas,” said Wilfredo ‘Wifi’. “Danny and I are also excited to get more hands on with our youth tech programs and maker education through MIAMade, Mini Maker Faire, Wynwood Maker Camp, etc.”
