"I've always had deep admiration for Yuval and the great "YO MIAMI!" In a city where most people don't hang out more than a few years - an entire decade of devotion to the local arts scene is practically unheard of! As a comedian who shares Yuval's vision of promoting young/new/different performance artists in Miami, I've always admired Yuval's dedication, professionalism, and warm personality. For 10 years he has continuously promoted and produced a variety of incredible and diverse artists, ideas, shows and genuinely creative experiences that are unique to our colorful city. All of us 305 performers remember our first visit to the incredibly cool, eclectic and legendary Yo Space on 62nd st! Regardless of the venue however, Yuval has always given us a platform for expression in Miami. I'm proud to call him my friend, and wish him and YO! A very very: HOPPY BERTDAY!!!!!!--

Freddie Stebbins, Comedian/Actor

"There were so many random shows, you'd never know if you were about to do stand-up with no stage, lights, or... hope. Yuval loved comedy so doing any of the Yo Miami shows meant all that stuff was handled and everyone had a better time. I could get looser and more experimental. Yuval contributes to Miami's comedy scene in a much needed way."

Daniel Reskin, Comedian

"Yo Miami and the shows Yuval has put together for comedians are an important part of the fabric of the comedy community in Miami. Always grateful for the space and stages he helped nurture and provided to help local artists still living in Miami, but also to the ones who have moved and still call Miami their hometown. Cheers to the 10 years! I have such a love for Yo Miami and Yuval's passion for the Creative Community. It's hard to find someone who understands and he always showed such love for all of it."

Jessica Anderson, Comedian

"I have seen that Yo Miami approaches projects with a genuine heart and interest in promotion of the arts culture. Representing artists with good intentions for great results"

Mike Makatron, Artist

"I've worked with Yuval starting around 2016 and was honored to be a part of the first Leaps & Bounds art shows he produced featuring customized Boundless Brooklyn products several years ago. It was such a unique show concept and really fun to be a part of, it was a favorite of mine. Yuval always puts together quality projects and he works hard to make sure the artists are treated right and represented well, which makes for a great experience when working with him."

Aquarela Sabol, Artist

"Yuval always made me feel at peace while working because he looks out for the artists. His creative vision is always in line with the artist. His grassroots culture provided us innumerable opportunities!"

Rei Ramirez, Artist

"Yuval was the instrument behind the creation of a few murals and installations throughout the years. Being included in his shows was key for an artist like me in order to make friends with other local artists. My favorite project with Yuval was a gorilla installation I made with cinder block boomboxes at Yo Space. This experience gave me a glimpse of all that could be done with my art. I am thankful for the artist network that I was able to establish because of Yuval. It's priceless. This may sound egotistical but the best part about collaborating with Yo Miami was MY show!"

Ruben Ubiera, Artist

"I'm part of the local artist scene here and Yo Miami and especially Yuval have always supported me and he has a special place in my heart. We have worked together on various projects and look forward to more in the future! Yuval was an integral part of bringing artistry to light in the design district. I always felt welcome in this small community and that's due to Yuval and Yo Miami. He knows the entire Miami area but still makes each of us feel special. Thank you brother"

Ernesto Kunde, Artist

"I've worked with Yuval and Yo Miami in so many ways over the years, and Yo Space was actually where I had my first studio. Yuval truly cares for the well being and best interests of the artists he works with. I can tell you from first hand experience that he's saved me a few times when money was low. He believed in me and my work and trusted me to get the job done. He's not just a collaborator but a great friend. The Average Joe events were iconic in my opinion and I remember that was one of the events in which I had sold my first ever four figure piece so I'm forever grateful for that and also all of the amazing artists that I connected with during those times."

Ivan Roque, Artist

"I've worked with Yuval in group shows, I've painted live at various brand collaborations and activations. My favorite was the Little Haiti Mural Project, it allowed me to engage directly with local members of the community who were happy to offer their feedback. Yuval is a proponent for continuing real relationships and inclusion for his neighbors. Yo Miami understands how important its role is in being an agent of cultural inspiration/elevation... He's not just taking up real estate pushing his own agendas. The Art Swaps at Yo Space shaped my network with the artist community and offered insight to the landscape of the collective.
