They
value the arts not only as an aesthetic expression of the human experience, but also as a tool that empowers all people and instills community pride.
Through the arts,
we all hope to build bridges that span racial, cultural and ethnic divisions.
With these goals in mind the Museum’s Public Programming
embraces all cultural art forms.
Presented in partnership with

LIN-SAY
LIN-SAY is an old school child trapped in a future world. Her pleasure-celebrating soul-dance music and videos are about to give feminism a much-needed ass-kicking in 2015.
The locally dubbed "Duchess of Detroit" is smashing sexual boundaries, using her sultry tones as the crucial basis of her pop-song elements, and challenging social and religious mores.

DETROIT SUMMERFEST: STEEL PULSE
STEEL PULSE may have explored various styles of music since they started out in 1975, but when it comes to the message, the UK’s Grammy – Winning reggae band has remained close to their roots. The Group have continued their commitment to fighting injustice, educating the masses, and promoting positive messages through spiritually uplifting music.
“We just can’t ignore the politics, because every life and soul that’s born on this earth is a political maneuver for someone, at some stage”, Hinds explains. “From a spiritual aspect, it’s really an upliftment through facing reality – what’s out there. We deal with positive spirits. It means putting aside the guns, the drugs and all of the things that are ailments of society – especially the black communities right now”.
