    Spacious, accommodating, and beautiful gallery with ample parking and access. Explored the collection and really enjoyed the variety, and was floored by the context once I learned more. Brilliant works in a fantastic setting.

    I've only been here 1 time, and that was for an event/a performance: Fresh Produce Series featuring Moonchild, with the opening act for an up-and-coming jazz band, Modern Element. The space was a really good size for small shows like these, but filled rather quickly. It was kept pretty clean as well! Lovely place, I look forward to visiting again, whenever that may be!

    My wife and I were invited into the gallery by an older gentleman who i believe worked there, yesterday. After looking at all of the beautiful paintings, we spoke with him for several minutes about what they made us feel, and the crazy things that have been happening. He was the kindest, wisest soul and it made the experience all the better. The gallery made us feel so many emotions all at once, and it was so cool to talk about them with this man. I do not remember his name, but he really did add so much to our time there. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend paying a visit to this place. Thankful for the experience!

    Such easy access from a prestigious arts center! Not only did they provide me with images from an artist they represent, I was offered access to the artist for an interview - all while preparing for a gallery opening! Many, many thanks to Izegbe!

    I've followed this place for years. I went particularly to Tango with Tango Randy and saw another teacher Alex. It's always fun when I can get there. You don't have to dress up. I also found a way to get inexpensive shoes. Tai Chi slippers are only a buck or two

  • 5/5 Ej J. 6 years ago on Google
    The Gallery is always showing very interesting pieces. The staff and owner are very friendly and knowledgeable about the pieces. The gallery is free admission Tuesdays through Saturday, 11am to 6pm. The gallery also host special events and is also a rentable space for your own event... Located right next to a great vegetarian restaurant, paired with the gallery, you could have an awesome date.

    Wonderful, as a child ( little bitty )>, my apartment building was next door. ( the fast food restaurant on the corner on Woodward across the street from the gas station ) Being an Artist myself and one who appreciates fine art, I must say I was extremely empress and fascinated by every picture and structural art displayed. I live in Atlanta now. I was raised in Detroit. That very building with the beautiful art, use to be a science center in the 60's and 70's........ Ps...You've done a very good job. Keep up the good work. Mr. George N'Namdi.
