Detroit Institute of Arts’ popular Inside|Out program returns with installations in 26 communities across Macomb, Oakland and Wayne Counties | 2021 marks the programs 12th year bringing high-quality museum reproductions into the community
Updated Jan 22, 2021
January 22, 2021 (Detroit) The Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA) announced the communities participating in the 2021 edition of Inside|Out, which brings high-quality reproductions of masterpieces from the DIA’s collection to outdoor venues throughout metro Detroit.
Inside|Out is a popular component of the DIA’s community engagement efforts. Over the past eleven years, the museum has partnered with more than 100 communities and engaged tens of thousands of residents.
“The Inside|Out program allows us a unique way to engage with tri-county residents by bringing art from the DIA into the communities in which they live,” said Salvador Salort-Pons, DIA director. “This year providing a way to bring communities together in a safe, outdoor fashion outside of the museum walls has a whole new meaning.”
The reproductions will be in 26 communities from May through October. Each community will display approximately four to 10 reproductions, clustered within walking or biking distance.
