Spark Opening

Another fantastic opening... Thanks to all for your continued support.

And special thanks to Brodie Killian of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney for your generous sponsorship.

SPARK -June 19

Please join us for the opening reception for SPARK! Saturday, June 19th, 6-9pm.

The theme of SPARK is collaboration. We've selected works from 9 artists and matched them up with 9 additional artists, who will then create a piece in response. With this exhibition, our hopes are to create dialogue between the two works and ultimately the two artists. In a way, we are forcing a collaboration and sparking a connection between two things that otherwise might not be possible.

Many works will be available for sale (cash or check).
BUTTER is located at 814 West 11 Mile in Royal Oak, MI, 48067. Parking is available behind the building.

SPARK partial preview event

we invited all the artists for cocktails to meet, talk about their work, and allow the second group of responders to see the works in person.

Get Ready for SPARK! -June 19th

We're busy getting ready for our next opening...
We've decided to develop our exhibit schedule by carrying one theme from the previous exhibition to the next. The upcoming show titled SPARK is centered around collaboration. We'll be curating works from 9 artists and matching them up with 9 additional artists, who will then create a piece in response. We're very excited about the show!
