About
Work : Detroit, With the establishment of the UM Detroit
Center in the cultural center of Detroit, the University
of Michigan has returned to its roots and renewed its commitment
to the people and the city of Detroit. To further cultivate
this engagement with the community, the School of Art &
Design is bringing together the creative communities of
Detroit and Ann Arbor with a new shared space for creative
work and dialogue — Work : Detroit, the School of Art
& Design’s newest gallery.
Through its exhibitions and related programming, this first
of its kind gallery promises to serve as an intersection
for the convergence of people and creative work from Detroit
to Ann Arbor and beyond. It is in this fertile terrain that
ideas collide and new perspectives to help us all face a
rapidly changing future bloom.
"a
cultural nerve center where people, places, and creative
work intersect"
