I was extremely impressed with the African Art. I love the beauty of the colors and image. I also purchased some cool items to take back home. Nothing real expensive here, but the art pictures and all. Nice employees and owners. Id love to visit again.

The staff here is super friendly. It was a joy to browse the beautiful African art and jewelry and…read morecollectibles that they sell here. They're also dog-friendly, and let my friend bring in his large black pit-bull mix, who looked very happy to be in there and receive attention. I bought a magnet from here as a souvenir.

I came here for the galleries and specifically the Michigan art competition…read more It was right next to a golf course, so when the GPS said we were here, I was confused. This is a great hidden gem and all of the galleries are free. It's definitely really small like you could see everything under an hour. There's also a small gift shop.

Nate and I were in the area recently so we stopped in to this historic store/workshop…read more Unfortunately we weren't able to do a tour, but I would love to in the future (book online ahead of time). The upstairs gallery was closed when we were there, so we just browsed the shop, which is full of all sorts of beautiful ceramic items like tiles, vases, art, and more. I liked seeing all the different pieces but nothing really shouted out to me. The animal tiles were probably my favorite. I also liked the house number tiles. They also had other non-ceramic items for sale, like earrings, puzzles, calendars, cards, etc. It is a nice place to find gifts! They also do classes and workshops, which sound fun! This isn't a spot that I need to visit every time I'm in the area, but it was fun to finally check out.

Most Detroiters have heard of Pewabic Pottery, but few know it's still going strong in its…read morebeautiful location on E. Jefferson. In addition to an active workshop, the building houses a gift shop with lots of wonderful ceramic pieces and a small museum, which details the history of Pewabic Pottery. It's a unique piece of Detroit history and a great place to buy gifts for yourself and others. It's well worth a visit to this hidden gem.

There are a myriad of talented and exceptional people living in this space and creating and showing and generally making a scene in the best sense of that word. The spaces for the installations are just gorgeous. And the living spaces are so generous. It's a jewel of a foster home that nurtures artists from around the world and the folks who appreciate art in its intense and varied forms. The openings are exciting and powerful and profound. And the family is going to have a legacy like the Gettys or Guggenheims down the road--get in on the first floor of this world because you will be able to brag about having hung out here to your progeny and theirs. How lucky we are!

Since my more bohemian days as an artsy-fartsy 20-something living in a basement of a huge…read morewarehouse/art gallery, I've had bouts of nostalgia for those live-work spaces that literally make you live and BREATHE your very art. Dust, paint, fumes, sweat, tears, blood, and lord knows what else becomes part of the particulate air flow. And of course Detroit has gotten a lot of press for being the new frontier for artists, the tabula rasa for experimenters and corporate-job-evaders but I admit to not witnessing much of this. Partly because all this opportunistic real estate and art endeavors are a little too ethically problematic for my taste, so I avoid them altogether. But hey, when you need to go support someone for their MFA thesis project, you STFU and convert your reticence into acquiescence. When all is said and done, I liked this space. Then again I'm a sucker for virtually anything housed in a domestic realm that is not traditionally domestic. There's a bathroom and a kitchen and two large'ish rooms in which to mill about and wax poetic. I saw a set of stairs leading up but did not take them (as it did not seem to be open to the public for this particular exhibition). The images on the website also suggest that there are other houses and other yards/landscapes in which various artists display their work. Come summer it might be worth checking out. From what I can gather, there are no set hours here - mostly just open for gallery openings. But I overheard someone saying that you can call ahead and make an appointment to stop by (perhaps the curators/owners/proprietors also live on premises). If you're so inclined to hop on the Detroit-art-tourist train, this might be a worthwhile stop. If not, then just walk on by.

I'm an art teacher, so this place can be a gold mine for me. I never go in there with a specific…read moreproduct in mind, because " it's like a box a chocolates." (Hopefully you get the reference ). Today was a great visit! The employee was a very arty young girl with fun piercings. She was friendly and definitely took care of me, price wise. I didn't realize that a lot of the things I got were not included in the bag price, my bad. She was so sweet and gave me a great price. Everything was clearly for my classroom. It's a good thing that this place is pretty far from my house and that I try to not be the art teacher who hoards stuff, otherwise this place would be a regular hang it of mine!

This place is amazing.

You never know what you'll find nor how much you'll need it until you see it. Get it while they got it (No matter how much you think "nobody else is gonna want to buy this") One person's trash is the next person's treasure. Repurposing at its best with a wonderful cause being supported. The employees are great! I love to see the looks on the faces of children the first time they come in, their mouths fall open like mine probably did.

The one big downside to this gallery was that it was not air-conditioned on a recent warm summer…read moreday when I visited. A friend and I sweated our way through both floors of the gallery because they had some interesting pieces, but it was cooler outside in the breeze. That being said, this gallery has an eclectic selection of paintings, prints and sculptures, including some lifelike and life-size sculptures and more abstract pieces. Some of the "art" was so immersed in pop culture (a painting based on the Family Guy cartoon? Puh-leez...) that I thought it was kind of junky. However, I liked a lot of the paintings and almost all the sculptures, including some great bronze sculptures by Yuroz. The building itself is pretty cool, too. There's a glass atrium at one side where some sculptures are on display, and there's a spiral staircase up to the second floor.
