Kimberly Rorick built the Picasso quote right into the sculpture — and somehow the piece makes you believe it even more than the words alone do. ❤️

A vacant building that's been part of Detroit's west side for more than a century is getting a new purpose.

Detroit Blight Busters (Farm City Detroit) is transforming the former Woolworth building on Grand River Avenue into the Sunflower Arts Center, a 30,000-square-foot mixed-use space in Old Redford. Plans include classrooms for children, seven live/work artist spaces, retail space for local creators, and a neighborhood diner designed to bring the community together.

The $7 million project is expected to take about 12 to 18 months to complete. Organizers say the goal is to create more opportunities for artists, young people, and small businesses while continuing the revitalization of the Old Redford neighborhood.

So proud of the work being done by Detroit Blight Busters to make the Sunflower Art Center a reality!

A former department store on Detroit's west side is being transformed into a community hub. Detroit Blight Busters is converting a building on Grand River Avenue near Lahser into a 30,000-square-foot mixed-use development called the Sunflower Arts Center.

Demetrios Sanders, one of your Detroit community reporters, has the story at the link in the comments.
