Sneak Peek — The latest solo show from including major works from Detroit’s Heidelberg Project, and Grandpa Sam Mackey, will open Saturday, September 13 at the in Sheboygan, WI and it is looking pretty epic as the finishing touches are being made!

In the project’s early years some questioned whether the HP was really art or if it should be in a museum instead of on Heidelberg Street.

After almost 40 years of Heidelbergology and worldwide acclaim this exhibit asks: IS IT ART NOW?
