Reviews
555 actually does things for the community. They have had a long hard struggle, but their determination to community and the arts makes them one of Detroit's emerging jewels.
Great place.
Amazing, one of the best.
Great works!
I love the diverse events that they host on the weekends. the 555 gallery is a breeding ground for urban art and positive community involvement.
555 is the best because it just is.
Since they opened their doors, they've tried to put the artists first over empty profits and put more artists on the board than the majority of local galleries combined.
555 rocks
Help them stay in Detroit, the life span of the arts for 555 is short lived due to inflation.
