Detroit Focus: Transition Home page

The Current detroitfocus.org

The first detroitfocus.org site appeared in 1999 and was the online face of the Focus 2000 Festival of Photography. Following that event, the current site was created to present the works of local photographers and to keep site visitors informed about local photographic events.

You can explore the last version of this site by clicking on the link below. Be sure to check the Archives page for links to past stories.

Our Mission Statement

Detroit Focus is an artists' alliance and cooperative dedicated to enriching the lives of artists.

Detroit Focus exists to provide an open forum and framework for artists and artistic expression and is committed to providing opportunities for artists in the visual arts, literature, music, and performing arts.

Detroit Focus dedicates its future to the continuity of the work of the many artists, patrons, and community leaders that founded and maintained the vision of Detroit Focus since 1978.

The New detroitfocus.org

This coming fall we will unveil a new detroitfocus.org site, one with a new look and (dare we say it) focus.

This new site will feature Flash-based photo essays created exclusively by Detroit-area photographers. These essays will fall into one of five categories: Music, People, Sports, Street, and Wheels. After all, that's what makes Detroit a great place to live.

To preview two of the new photo essays ("New Poets" and "HollyHood"), click here.

Have a body of work you'd like to present? If so, we'd love to hear from you.
Email a description of your work to Managing Director Michael Sarnacki and we'll contact you.
