Art show in Woodbridge to benefit Detroit Architectural Salvage, 555 and 4731 galleries

Three organizations that are key to rebuilding and reinvigorating Woodbridge have collaborated on an art show/benefit.

"Urban Alchemy: Artifacts Transformation" will feature work from more than two-dozen local artists from June 9-24. The event will benefit the Architectural Salvage Warehouse of Detroit, 4731 Gallery and 555 Gallery and Studios.

The show, to be exhibited at both galleries (located on Grand River near Warren), will feature work from city-inspired artists, most of who work with found or salvaged objects. There will be a live auction on Friday, June 9, at which more than 15 doors transformed by artists will be auctioned from 6-10 p.m. Tickets for the preview are $75. Call (313) 515-0399 for more info.

The public opening is free, family friendly and will be from 3-10 p.m., Saturday, June 10, at both galleries. For more information, visit www.urban-alchemy.org
