Mission: The Detroit Artists Market fosters a vibrant and distinctive artistic community in Detroit and Michigan by promoting, exhibiting and selling the work of emerging and established artists, through educational programming and art exhibitions, and by serving as a resource to all who seek to expand their knowledge, understanding and enjoyment of art.
Results: DAM shows and sells the work of local artists through quality exhibitions and events. Each year more than $100,000 is paid in commissions to hundreds of artists in our community.
Programs: DAM produces a full schedule of exhibitions featuring new and established artists from Detroit and the Metro region. Juried shows, curated exhibitions, and market-style shows provide a wide variety of opportunities for artists to show and sell their work. Artists take a 2/3 commission on art sales, meaning more dollars out in the community directly to local artists. DAM also provides the community with an inviting and accessible place to learn about and purchase art.
