MADE OF: an exhibition featured at The Carr Center that takes the internal layers of each artist and displays them for the public to view. Held in conjunction with The Carr Center Film Series, MADE OF; will be on display from July 10th through the end of the festival.
Founded in 1991, The Carr Center’s core mission is to platform and uplift Black excellence, history, creativity, and culture. The Carr Center hosts multiple programs aimed at educating others about the importance of preserving Black artistry—particularly notable is their Artist Hub, which supports local and regional artists and hosts rotating exhibits and guest artist residencies. Their dedication to displaying various forms of art, from photo and film to music and poetry, makes The Carr Center one of Detroit’s foremost patrons of creativity, and NOVA24 is extremely honored to take part in The Carr Center legacy.
The Carr Center Film Series also includes short film group screenings from various filmmakers, as well as a highlight night on July 30th for Music Composition in Filmmaking. Programming includes an artist talk made up of those filmmakers to give audiences insight on their creative processes. Join us to explore the voices of Detroit’s photography and film scene!
