The Design District is known for its art studios, but all you see are throw pillows. Take a guided tour of resident artists’ work spaces at 10:30 a.m., starting at Locust Projects. A few blocks north, infamous photographer David LaChapelle displays new works at Wolfgang Roth & Partners Fine Art gallery. For celeb sightings: Beg an invite to the private Photo Miami fundraiser (hosted by Usher) at Viceroy. At 10:30 p.m., NY transplant Fountain Art Fair boasts a live show by G.Love (no word on the Special Sauce). And at 11 p.m., W South Beach hosts We Rock the Arts, a poolside bash with performances by Glen Matlock (Sex Pistols) and Jesse Yusef Murphy (Brazilian Girls).

Saturday

Stop by The Webster for a first look at artist Jeff Koons’s line of watches for Ikepod. Get tipsy and hit The Box. NYC’s risque burlesque show migrates to Nikki Beach with aerialist acrobats and anatomically, um, innovative acts.

Nurse that hangover with fresh air at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, where you can see avant-garde artist Yayoi Kusama’s garden exhibit. Conclude your Basel frazzle at an alternative fair like O.H.W.O.W.’s It Ain’t Fair, an offbeat display of 30 international artists.
