✨ We’re excited for the upcoming Outsider Art Fair in New York City, March 19–22!

Each year, this event brings together an incredible community of artists, galleries, collectors, and supporters, and we’re especially thrilled to see so many Progressive Studios and PASA members coming together in one place. The fair is always a powerful moment to celebrate the work of artists from progressive studios, connect with longtime collaborators, and welcome new audiences to this vibrant field. If you’re attending, be sure to visit and support the many studios and artists represented this year. We can’t wait to see the community gather again in NYC!

𝓜𝓪𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓻𝓹𝓲𝓮𝓬𝓮 /... on view at PASC Detroit Gallery through March 28th, Thurs-Sat from 12-5PM.

Lewis Foster has moved through different eras in his art practice. Before working in watercolor, his drawings were created exclusively with pencil and colored pencil, like "Slow Home House Story".

The through line? Realist drawings built from rows of serial images, ranging from modernist furniture and vehicles to advertisements and archaeological artifacts. Today, his work has expanded to include figurative forms.

𝓜𝓪𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓻𝓹𝓲𝓮𝓬𝓮 /... on view at PASC Detroit Gallery through March 28th, Thurs-Sat from 12-5PM.

The title of this exhibition comes directly from the artists’ own descriptions of their work. Nick Granch uses a restrained “…”, an intentional ellipsis that suggests an omission. His contribution to the title reflects a quiet, deliberate gesture.

"City of Churches" and "Houses and Pools" highlight Nick’s architecturally inspired drawings. These detailed environments feel like backdrops within the world of his original characters.

"City of Churches" unfolds in stark black and white, while "Houses and Pools" bursts with color. Each is carefully rendered in gel pen, built through patient, deliberate mark-making.

𝓓𝓮𝓭𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷 𝓸𝓯 𝓣𝓲𝓶𝓮, opening Friday, February 27th, 4-6 PM, is the PASC program's fifth annual exhibition at the Art Gallery at Westland City Hall.

Despite life’s obstacles, an artist’s dedication to their daily practice activates and expands each artist’s work by creating space for experimentation and growth, outside the gaze of an external audience.  This exhibit presents a collection of artwork from artists who have worked out of the PASC Westland art studio. In the studio, creativity grows through a consistent act of making. It cannot be forced; creative growth unfolds within its own time in varied and often unexpected ways.

Southgate-based PASC artist Therrin Burns recreates the historic photograph of Rosa Parks seated on a bus, centering her presence to fully occupy the frame.

The original image was taken during a planned photo shoot on December 21, 1956, the day after the Montgomery, Alabama, bus system was integrated. In this reimagining, visibility becomes an act of remembrance and power. Previously featured in 𝓐𝓶𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓷 𝓓𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓶𝓼.

"Masterpiece/...", Lewis Foster & Nick Granch, is a 2-person exhibition featuring PASC artists Lewis Foster and Nicholas “Nick” Granch. This is the first comprehensive exhibition featuring a large selection of both artists' artworks spanning the past three years. This exhibition highlights their distinct visual languages, presenting two strong and individual artistic practices in dialogue. The title for this exhibition comes from Lewis Foster's description for his artwork, masterpiece, combined with Nick Granch's more restrained ... ellipses, implying a title that is also an intentional omission on Nick's part.
