A Conversation About Connecting Art and Entrepreneurship

  • Spot Lite 2905 Beaufait Street Detroit, MI, 48207 United States (map)

Join us as we extend a warm welcome to the Gilbert Family Foundation for an enlightening conversation about the Small Business Mural Project. For the past six years, 1XRUN has spearheaded this city-wide initiative, fostering the intersection of public art and local businesses.

The Small Business Murals Project, which was created by the Rocket Community Fund and now managed by the Gilbert Family Foundation, pairs muralists with small business owners throughout the city to create transformative, large-scale murals. The goal of the project is two-fold: to spur business growth for participating entrepreneurs and to create one-of-a-kind art in Detroit neighborhoods that brings people together.

7 pm - 9 pm Talk and Conversation “Connecting Art and Entrepreneurship.”
