The art was nice and I enjoyed the overall vibe of a quick and accessible art gallery experience. It was free, so that's an added bonus! I wish there would have been a few more pieces to view but overall, no real complaints. I liked being able to scan a QR code to learn more about the art.

They've been around a long time and it seems like they showcase pretty old school artists here, too. The last show I attended here was for venerable Cass Corridor artist Robert Sestok. I tend to forget about this gallery, tucked back into a little storefront spot on the ground floor of a loft building. It's location and small size make it good for gallery hopping, though. Detroit Artists Market is nearby and the evening I made it to the Sestok opening here I also checked out an opening at the MOCAD. I'd also recommend checking to see when openings are as they'll likely be open later and you can see the space buzzing with people.

The shows she assembles and puts up are breathtaking.They are so clued into the spirit of Detroit and so magnificently displayed that you will walk out of them needing a fan. She is absolutely dedicated to her adopted home city and we are all the luckier for that dedication...she is a gentle, yet fierce promoter and patron of the arts...I make an effort to stop in here as often as I can. It's just that fine.

A fun and affordable place to do art! First time here and definitely not the last. My friends and…read moreI went to the Open studio to create art. It's only $6 for 4 hours and there are so many art materials available to use. You reserve your spot online and pay when you arrive. Open studio is self-guided, but the staff is there to help you find materials and offer tips if needed. They have Paint, brushes, wood, beads, rubber stamps, hot glue, construction paper, graphic duct tape, felt, ect. If you choose to paint on a brand-new canvas, there is a slight up charge in addition to the studio fee. The staff was friendly and gave us a tour when we arrived. I wish i knew about this place earlier because they have been around since 1996. I love their motto - "a community art and art therapy studio that believes art is for everyone and everyone is an artist." They have therapeutic art programs for individuals with special needs, inclusive community programs and other special events. A great place for all ages and art abilities to spend the afternoon creating an art project or work on a craft. I hope this company continues to succeed to empower wellness and therapeutic healing through creativity.

His enthusiasm is infectious and his teaching experience unparalleled. I've watched him jump from a 16 year old to a 89 year old and instantly focus on their needs and skill sets. If you are an experienced painter he will move you up another level (I've worked side by side with retired art teachers) and if you know nothing he will teach you everything you need to know. The paintings done by pure beginners of all ages are amazing. Look at his website and study the "gallery". You will see works by kids, first paintings and experienced artists. He has also developed a real sense of community-everyone is out having fun and trying to expand their talents and skill sets. Not sure, just drop by-everyone is welcome.
