Embark on a journey through a series of socially charged paintings "Underprivileged Oasis. Alvin Smith is an impactful Incarcerated Artist
We have what you have been waiting for!! Another art show!
This one will be at Muse Southeast. We are exhibiting the work of Alvin Smith. This show is called “Underprivileged Oasis” the artist embarked on a journey through a series of socially charged paintings. In each installment, the oasis is represented by the neighborhood liquor store. With an honest, and sometimes ugly look at the things that tend to occur there. On display are truths that many know of, but few shine light on. These works beg the question, why have these stores become gathering places for urban communities?
Opening reception Thursday at 7
We partnered with our friends from California,
Alvin Smith is an incarcerated artist in Michigan’s Department of Corrections. He was born in Laurel, Mississippi, and grew up in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Alvin has been a long time participant in the University of Michigan’s Prison Creative Arts Project (PCAP) and one of only fifteen American incarcerated artists to be invited to participate in the “We Bear Exhibition” in Coventry England (February 2022). His art has been published by College Inside and his works are cataloged in the Kruizenga Art Museum.
We would love to see you Thursday

Such a beautiful experience last night at “A tribute to Lyricist Lounge “ with Hip Hop Legend Talib Kweli! Last night we were educated by Hip Hop legend and Scholar Talib Kweli on the history of the lyricist lounge. We then presented him with some of our amazing talent from and connected to Grand Rapids. We were graced by Artist that are next to blow globally and Local Legends. Tablib Kweli provided feedback and affirmation to our artist and to our city.
