There are places of beauty. There are places of spiritual power. Tulum holds both. Faena Rose patrons gathered around communal tables at Pao to explore the vision taking shape along Mexico’s Caribbean coast. An evening of discovery, candlelight, and the flavors of the Yucatán; shared with the people who make the Faena world what it is. #FAENAROSE #FaenaTulum
@faena.rose welcomed @tristanharris , a leading voice at the intersection of technology, ethics, and human agency, for a timely conversation on AI safety, responsibility, and the future of our shared digital reality.
The evening’s discussion explored the ethical architecture behind emerging technologies, the geopolitical race for AI dominance, and the moral imagination required to steward tools more powerful than any humanity has previously created.
Moving beyond fear or hype, the conversation invited clarity and courageous thinking about how we shape a future worthy of our highest aspirations.
In an exclusive @faena.rose conversation, @fifa President Gianni Infantino reflected on the changing landscape of global football, the expansion of major international competitions, and the opportunities and complexities that come with leading one of the world’s most influential organizations.
Presented in an intimate format, the evening began with a conversation before opening to questions from the member audience, moderated by journalist and Faena Rose member @matthaggman .
Venezuela’s future—and its ripple effects across the Americas—took center stage at a timely, insight-driven conversation hosted by @faena.rose and moderated by @lilialuciano unpacking the country’s uncertain path forward.
The evening brought together @davidsmolansky and @marianaatencio for a nuanced discussion on the political, social, and economic forces shaping Venezuela’s next chapter. Smolansky, a former mayor forced into exile after opposing the Maduro regime, offered a firsthand perspective on democratic breakdown, migration pressures, and the realities of political transition—issues that have driven millions of Venezuelans to flee the country in recent years.
Complementing that viewpoint, Atencio drew on her experience as an award-winning journalist to dissect the deeper power dynamics at play, asking critical questions about leadership, accountability, and the human cost behind closed-door decisions. Together, the speakers provided attendees with a clearer understanding of the forces driving Venezuela’s trajectory, outlining potential outcomes and emphasizing how the nation’s future will influence regional stability, migration patterns, and global confidence in democratic institutions.
During our Miami Residency, we love engaging with the community and bringing music to new spaces 🎵
We had an incredible time sharing chamber music in such an inspiring setting, in partnership with Rubell Museum and Faena Rose. TCO musicians Jessica Sindell, Jason Yu, and William Bender performed and joined our President & CEO André Gremillet for a conversation on artistry, collaboration, and the creative process behind the music.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, we can’t wait to share more music with the Miami community! ☀️
A scandal that once toppled a culinary empire is back under the microscope—this time, on its own terms.
More than a decade after the controversy that derailed her career, “Cancelled: The Paula Deen Story” revisits the rise, fall, and complicated legacy of one of America’s most recognizable chefs through the lens of acclaimed director @billycorben . Blending revealing interviews with Deen, her family, and critics alongside rich archival footage, the documentary peels back the headlines to explore the human cost behind the cultural firestorm.
As one critic noted, it’s “a brisk, witty documentary that’s as easy to enjoy as a plate of hot biscuits,” while still offering “far more context to a career-ending whirlwind than most were privy to.”
Rather than offering simple answers, the film leans into discomfort—probing questions of race, accountability, and the uneven nature of public outrage in the early days of so-called cancel culture. Corben crafts what’s been called an “undeniably fascinating” and “eye-popping reminder of celebrity ephemerality,” challenging audiences to reconsider not just Deen’s story, but the broader systems that shaped it.
The result is a layered portrait that asks viewers to sit with competing truths—and to question whether, in the court of public opinion, the punishment always fits the crime.
@faenaresidencesmiami ’s Sales Gallery served as the setting for an intimate @faena.rose residency evening welcoming back @nytimes bestselling author @malcolmgladwell for a conversation on The Power and Peril of Emotions.
With his signature storytelling, Gladwell offered a provocative examination of a defining historical moment in the United States through the story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, exploring the broader question of how emotion shapes decision-making and legacy.
Residents, prospective buyers, and invited cultural and business leaders gathered for the salon-style talk, reflecting Faena Rose’s community-driven residential vision where cultural programming and shared experiences are central to daily life. Hosted by Faena Residences Miami, the evening brought together notable guests including Edgardo Defortuna, Katy Stoka, Harvey Daniels, and Pablo De Ritis.
Faena Residences Miami recently introduced Faena Rose as the first permanent setting dedicated to the brand’s patron community. Suspended across three levels nearly 700 feet above the Miami River, Faena Rose is designed as a cultural platform supporting dialogue, creativity, wellness, and connection as an integral part of the residential experience.
@faena.rose debuted its new original series, Roses & Thorns, at the @faenatheater , where early-stage founders stepped onstage to defend their ideas in front of Rose members.
Hosted by entrepreneur and business leader @charliewalk , the live forum brought together three founders who faced rapid-fire questions about their creativity, business model, and market potential before the audience joined in to challenge their concepts.
Members then delivered the night’s verdict through live digital voting—Rose for a great idea or Thorn for one needing work—with each presentation offering founders a potential pathway to funding from Faena Rose members.
One night, two culinary heavyweights stepped into the ring — and Miami got a front-row seat to the ultimate food fight. 🥊🔥
As part of the @sobewff Chef’s Edition of Rose Rumble at @faena.rose , the debate stage transformed into a rapid-fire battleground where wit mattered just as much as reputation. The unscripted, 60-minute showdown invited audience members to grill the chefs with wild, unpredictable questions, giving each contender just 60 seconds to respond — no filibusters, no PR polish, just sharp takes and quick thinking. The winner? Decided purely by the roar of the crowd.
In the red corner stood Andrew “Chambo Vaca” Zimmern, the Emmy-winning culinary explorer known for turning global food adventures into powerful cultural conversations. Facing him in the white corner was Duff “Hebrew Hammer” Goldman, pastry virtuoso and creative force behind Charm City Cakes, celebrated for transforming sugar into edible art.
The result was an electric clash of personalities, perspectives, and punchlines that proved food culture is at its best when it’s bold, unscripted, and just a little bit competitive.
Few chefs have shaped the modern Miami table as profoundly as @chefmichy . A @beardfoundation winner known for her vibrant, Latin inspired cooking, Bernstein has spent decades translating memory, travel, and culture into food that feels both soulful and precise.
Moderated by @leeschrager , Founder and Director of @sobewff , this @faena.rose conversation explored Bernstein’s evolution as a chef and entrepreneur, from building beloved concepts with her husband and business partner, @davidamiami , to creating some of the city’s most celebrated experiences, including @cafelatrovamiami , @sweetlibertymia , @lacanitamiami , and the recent return of @sramartinezmiami .
Taking place ahead of her recognition at the Tribute Dinner, part of the 25th Anniversary of SOBEWFF, this intimate evening was a chance to hear directly from a local icon about influence, reinvention, and what it takes to stay creatively alive in hospitality.
From the streets to the spotlight 🎨✨ Faena Rose members went behind the scenes at the Museum of Graffiti in Wynwood for an exclusive, private tour led by an expert in the history, culture, and evolution of graffiti into a global art movement. After diving deep into the stories and styles that shaped the scene, members stepped into the culture themselves, learning how to craft their own tags and refine technique during a hands-on masterclass. Art, education, and creative expression, done the Faena Rose way.
