Downtown Coconut Grove

Grove Odes
Project by The Coconut Grove Business Improvement District and O, Miami

The Coconut Grove Business Improvement District has partnered with O, Miami to display a collection of 100 Grove-inspired poems, written by Grove residents, throughout Coconut Grove. This outdoor, public-art initiative taps into the Grove’s legendary storytelling spirit and is a safe way for locals to enjoy art and literature in a scenic setting. From peacocks and sailboats to the Grove’s lush landscaping, bohemian vibe, rich history, and more, Coconut Grove’s local poets have expressed their love for Miami’s oldest neighborhood through an original, poetic format created by O, Miami and WLRN, the Zip Ode.
