OUR STORY
The tale of Artist Village Detroit is one of resilience and renewal. From the brink of extinction, we emerged as a beacon of hope for the Old Redford neighborhood within Brightmoor. Over the past 15 years, Blight Busters, our driving force, has invested over $300,000 in facility improvements.
What once stood as a neglected space has now become a 6,000-square-foot hub of entertainment, shopping, and inspiration. This revival was made possible by the tireless dedication of our volunteers and the support of our cherished partners
