Art Takeover Project 2025
Creativity. Community. Collaboration
This walkable, month long art exhibition that spans across 6 blocks of Downtown Grosse Pointe. Art Takeover Project was created to connect community with local artists and businesses across the Village Business District through an interactive display of art. This annual event takes place throughout the month of September, where visitor can vote for their favorite art displays and participate in the ATP scavenger hunt for prizes. Last years event hosted 84 local artists in 35 local businesses across the village! Scroll down for last years event map.
Number of artists per business will be determined based on square footage and available space for artwork, as directed by participating businesses. Artists and businesses will be paired at the end of July and will have the month of August to create/ come up with a display.
This is a juried, open theme, all-media call for art. Both 2D and 3D art pieces will be accepted. Art displays may be an individual piece/installation or a themed "Collection" (relatively, and in agreement with the business). Pieces may be for sale of NFS. Artists retain 100% of art sales, unless otherwise negotiated with their hosting business.
Participating businesses will receive a participating sign with a QR code, a highlighted space on the ATP map, and a feature in an upcoming newsletter.
