UICA

Founded in 1977, the Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts (UICA) is Michigan’s largest contemporary arts center and a dynamic, multidisciplinary laboratory for the advancement of the art of our time. UICA actively challenges both artists and audiences to new levels of dialogue, creative pursuit, reflection, and illumination through: groundbreaking visual arts exhibitions, thought-provoking performances and presentations, studio programs for local artists, cutting edge films, as well as educational and expressive arts programs for youth and adults.

 its no secret that i am a huge UICA fan, but i have to say that this is the 2nd exhibit of this type i have been able to take my 9 year old sons to at the UICA and it gets them thinking that they too can do something creative and it be worthwhile. They came home and made crazy collage art for hours after the trip to UICA last weekend. We are lucky to live in such an art oriented community
