History

Established in 2013.

Inner State Gallery will open May 17^th with artist Glenn Barr’s first Detroit solo show in nearly four years, aptly titled «Rooms». The debut show in the recently renovated 1800 square foot gallery in Detroit’s Eastern Market marks the beginning of a new chapter for the creative collective grown out of 323East in Royal Oak.

The historic three story building totals nearly 10,000 square feet and includes an expansive white wall gallery, production offices of the group’s online gallery 1xRUN, as well as an artist in residency live/​work space. Built at the turn of the century, the building was originally used as a manufacturing and retail location for the Detroit Knitting Mills.

«We have been searching for the right location for the past two years and we are more than excited to finally call Eastern Market home,» explains Inner State/​1xRUN co-​founder Dan Armand. «The Market is such a special place. It’s a vibrant, colorful part of the city»
