The Miami Design Preservation League's Official Art Deco Gift Shop is in the heart of South Beach, and for good reason: It is a perfect point of contact between the vibrantly artistic soul of Miami Beach and the graceful body of work that is its architectural landscape from the Art Deco era. If you want to train your eye to better appreciate your surroundings, this wonderful store provides clear evidence to South Beach visitors why there is magic, beauty and history around practically every corner. Thanks to the devoted MDPL team, and the brilliant folks staffing the shop, you can quickly see and feel why this gem of a neighborhood continues to shine and attract new generations of admirers. The OADGS offers a unique and ever-evolving selection of vintage Art Deco finds, carefully chosen by the exceedingly knowledgeable and gracious staff members. The team at the Official Art Deco Gift Shop truly know their stuff. There are artists, collectors and architects among the faces you will see working at the shop and actively promoting the important work the MDPL has done for decades to protect and preserve the historic heritage and cultural significance of South Beach. Very special thanks to Jeremy, and his colleague, artist/designer Iris Chase for all their warmth and insight shared during our visit in September. And Iris' wearable art - do NOT miss the chance to experience the world while looking through a pair of her one-of-a-kind, exquisitely transformed sunglasses! Unforgettable! Hope to visit again soon and see what new wonders our friends at the Official Art Deco Gift Shop have in store. The ability to directly support the Miami Design Preservation League's work makes the experience even more worth it!

Loved the Art Deco Walk. But, the best stop for sure was the Offical Art Deco Gift Shop!!
Not only did it have the most incredible, unique and funky stuff that made perfect for gifts for my family, but Iris was wonderful enough to give us a private tour and helped me find perfect items for everyone.
I thought I was completely out of luck with all of the same Surf Style shops on every corner, but finding this gem saved me from showing up with the same cheesy suveniours as everyone else. I now have thoughful and one of a kind gifts that will help us and our family remember this trip to Miami forever!
Please never change this place! It should stay funky and fun!! A literal oasis for all things actually art deco!
Thank you so much Iris, you made our trip special and made my whole day special because you took a chance on us! I hope you are there next time we visit!

Havenāt been to Ocean Drive for at least a couple of years. The vehicular traffic and blaring music have been deterrents for me. But I decided to run by there last week since I heard it was closed to traffic.
I made an impromptu visit to the tourist information building on ocean Drive and discovered the Art Deco shop which I was told had been there for years. It was the best outing Iāve had since Iāve been sheltering myself at home since March. This charming place...
is a blast from the past. The music is wonderful too. This store has so many wonderful things. There are genuine antiques, and elegant Art Deco gifts, enormous selection of all kinds of jewelry. The only thing that was missing was my wallet. Ocean Drive will be on my route the next time Iām running or walking. You should visit this store. It is super cool.

My friends and I visited this gift shop in the Art Deco district and it was an activity on its own! So many great finds to look at and even to buy! The service was exceptional too! I walked away with authentic vintage gifts. Will definitely be back!
