Dunbar Tower Public Art Procurement
Ann Arbor, MI
In Progress

The Ann Arbor Housing Commission, representing its non-profit organization, the Ann Arbor Housing Development Corporation, along with the Community Leadership Council, engaged InToto Studio to create a process for procuring and implementing local artists to provide murals for the newly constructed Dunbar Tower affordable housing facility. The development includes housing for low-income artists located at 121 Catherine, Ann Arbor, Michigan. The selection process was designed to showcase a diverse range of local voices that reflect the historically Black neighborhood - Ann Arbor’s West Side. The selected artists produced a range of artworks, including public murals, commemorative plaques, and building signage. InToto’s responsibilities included developing the outreach and selection process, community engagement, and managing.

Dunbar Tower is an affordable housing development from the Ann Arbor Housing Commission located on the corner of 4th Avenue and Catherine Street downtown Ann Arbor. Residents are now moving in! There’s beautiful art pieces inside and outside of the building honoring the history of this area, which was once a predominantly Black neighborhood. Soon there will be a space in the building open for public usage called Porter’s Place.

Here’s some of the amazing artwork in progress and the amazing artists creating them, stop by and check the murals out!

Did you know, that murals offer a huge benefit to the community! Matter of fact 60% of people surveyed believe that public art improves their neighborhood and creates stronger bonds. Not only is neighborhood involvement increased but murals can offer representation of those that live there. #murals #tulipcitywalls #benefitsofmurals #getinvolved

April. April. April. It’s only right that I recap you a couple weeks after starting to process all the feelings, experiences, and rain you brought me. This first full month of spring was truly a rebirth. So many ideas being brought to the table, and the common theme of all of them? Community. I am finally the artist I wanted to be 2 years ago. I remember walking through a park with itty bitty Copper strapped to my chest and manifesting the artist I am now while having one of my casual check in’s with Miss Rhonda.

Damn life goes fast. Aprils go fast. Love stays timeless.
