Detroit Roots: A Shared History Exhibit Opening Reception

Detroit Roots: A Shared History Exhibit Opening Reception


"Detroit Roots: A Shared History," on view at the Detroit Public Library (Main Library) from January 17 - April 30, 2026, will celebrate our shared connection to Detroit as the country approaches its 250th anniversary in 2026. We’re especially excited for this show—it’s both a tribute to the Detroit Society of Women Painters and Sculptors beginnings in Detroit and a reflection of our shared humanity.

Join us for an opening reception on Saturday, January 17 at 2:00 as we celebrate the work of the artists, learn more about our organization, and enjoy light refreshments.

Date Saturday, January 17, 2026
Time 2:00pm - 4:30pm
