Welcome to Miami Artist United!
I’m Chris Tijerino, the founder, and I want to personally welcome you to a creative family built on collaboration, passion, and purpose. Miami Artist United is more than just a group—it's a movement.
We're a community of filmmakers, actors, singers, photographers, editors, and more, all working together to grow, create, and support one another.
Our mission is simple: To create a space where creativity thrives, careers are supported, and every artist has a voice. Whether it's short films, music videos, photo shoots, workshops, or social mixers, we're here to make magic together.
We believe in respect, support, and professionalism. That means showing up, giving credit, being kind, and holding each other to a high standard. We have a leadership team to keep things running smoothly, but everyone’s voice matters. If you’ve got ideas, energy, or passion, we want it.
So again, welcome. Let’s make something unforgettable.
We are Miami Artist United. Let’s create!
