It's the only facility of its kind in Macomb County. The center holds monthly exhibitions ranging from juried statewide competitions to invitational and student shows.

Money raised during the ArtParty helps the center continue to keep a full schedule of art classes and exhibitions, outreach and opportunities for artists.
