Edition 12 takes us on the road to Atlanta, where we team up with the inaugural Atlanta Art Fair to take a deeper into the city's cultural landscape with a focus on its strengthening visual artists and programming... From their first show with REVOK in downtown Detroit to their current exhibition honoring local legend Charles McGee at the remodeled grounds of the Shepherd, Library Street Collective plays na major part in the booming Detroit art scene that has been building over the past decade.
Their contributions have been instrumental in building major art careers, such as Tyrrell Winston’s, and in fostering inclusive community initiatives like the Progressive Art Studio Collective. Library Street Collective’s dedication to supporting artists of all backgrounds exemplifies the spirit of Detroit’s dynamic art culture.
In this edition, we also sit with three Detroit natives, Allison Glenn, Tiff Massey, and Lakela Brionne, to discuss the intersection of art, community, and legacy. They explore the importance of creating spaces that celebrate Black creativity, share insights on mentorship, and emphasize the need for authenticity in the art world.
We invite you to discover in this edition the remarkable and stories that define Detroit’s ever-evolving art landscape.
