Using art to provoke thought, promote discussion, inspire action and heal communities...The Heidelberg Project is a Detroit based community organization and an open-air art environment in the heart of an urban community on Detroit's East Side. Tyree Guyton, founder and artistic director, uses everyday, discarded objects to create a two-block area full of color, symbolism, and intrigue. Now celebrating more than 30 years of art, energy, and community, the Heidelberg Project is recognized around the world as a demonstration of the power of creativity to transform lives.The Heidelberg Project offers a forum for ideas, a seed of hope, and a bright vision for the future. It's about taking a stand to save forgotten neighborhoods. It's about helping people think outside the box and it's about offering solutions. It's about healing communities through art - and it's working!
