The Downriver Council for the Arts is another community gem! The DCA is housed at 81 Chestnut in Wyandotte, MI. Though located in Wyandotte, the DCA serves 21 surrounding communities. The unique, historic building has 3 spacious levels with elevator access. Lower and main level amenities include: Resident artist studios, classroom areas for children and adult art workshops, 2 large art galleries, a commercial kitchen, and a well-stocked artisan gift shop. The upper level auditorium is the ultimate venue for events such as: DJ/live music concerts, vendor art shows, club meetings, ballroom dancing, and yoga/meditation classes, just to name a few! The DCA also hosts special indoor and outdoor community events throughout the year.
Support and involvement from the community is vital for the sustainability and growth of this wonderful non-profit organization. WALK--FOR THE LOVE OF ART!
