Jordan "TEAD" Vaughn was an integral part of the art and culture of the Lincoln St. Art Park. After his death and the redevelopment of the Dreamtroit complex several of his pieces are still intact, and we are doing everything we can to preserve them and make sure they last to keep inspiring artists....

Y’all have heard a lot in the past few months about Dreamtroit… a project we have been working on for the last six years. This unique, inclusive affordable housing campus is now accepting applications! Many different affordable options available for every housing or studio need. Please inquire or share to someone you know that would benefit from an active creative community.

Today is the 2 year anniversary of my craniotomy! Super stoked to 🐝 alive! Kristen said that I have 9 lives… and to celebrate and commemorate this new life, my amazing friend Bunnie Reiss is coming to Detroit in May to Share Her Candy by painting a gigantic mural of a cosmic kitty at Dreamtroit. If you are happy that I am alive and/or love Art, please consider donating to Make Art Work to help support this project!
