Another year, another GenArt Shop Miami. I personally didn't make it last year but our resident Lady Wrangler made it out and raved about Shop Miami 2007, though she did have her qualms with the liquor selection (Where is the Bombay sponsorship??)....That aside this years event is being held June 26th at the Moore Building in the Design District.
