Today, we’re excited to share the finalists of the 2015 Detroit Knight Arts Challenge - 70 ideas culled from 1,000-plus submissions from neighborhoods across Detroit.
The list below is packed with exciting ideas from the city’s cultural community, and a few trends. This year, we saw projects focused on capturing and preserving Detroit’s historical and artistic legacy, reclaiming spaces for local artists to create new work and exchange ideas, and to release made-in Detroit musical recordings that celebrate the cities unique sound – from 70s gospel music reissues to Bengali songbooks.
We will announce the winners on Oct. 27, once the finalists’ detailed proposals are reviewed by a panel of local artists and arts advocates.
Thanks to everyone who submitted an idea, and we look forward to celebrating with the winners in the fall.
