Come check@it out if you're in Detroit! Unfortunately a couple of the project homes have burnt down recently. #abandoned
Heidelberg Project begins with the belief that all citizens, from all cultures, have the right to grow and flourish in their communities. The HP believes that a community can re-develop and sustain itself, from the inside out, by embracing its diverse cultures and artistic attributes as the essential building blocks for a fulfilling and economically viable way of life. It’s different but a great stop while here in Detroit.
The Heidelberg project which gets its name from Heidelberg street is a neighborhood art project. A once run down neighborhood, resident Tyree Guyton has transformed abandoned junk into a massive outdoor exhibit.
Not only are the houses cool but the street art is too
Don't miss out on seeing this amazing display of true street art and community spirit on a street in Detroit's East Side. It was actually a bit overwhelming and was much more moving than I expected #HeidelbergProject #Detroit #art #streetart #urbanart
