Join DAM for a dynamic Art x Design Creative Economy Roundtable on Wednesday, September 10th at 1:00 PM, bringing together leaders, changemakers, and visionaries at the intersection of art, design, and economic development in Detroit.

This timely conversation will explore how Detroit’s creative sector continues to shape the city’s cultural and economic future—through innovation, collaboration, and inclusive growth. Facilitators from local institutions (CultureSource, Design Core, Eastern Market and more!) will guide an open dialogue on the current opportunities and challenges facing artists, designers, and institutions within the evolving creative economy.

Whether you’re an artist, designer, cultural producer, policymaker, or simply passionate about Detroit’s creative landscape, this roundtable offers a unique space to connect, exchange ideas, and envision new possibilities for collective impact.
