KO Studio Gallery

Michigan-based artist collective Heavenly Dogs founded KO Studio Gallery in 2017. The studio allows the collective group to nurture and push its innovative limits, on the one hand, and to offer a space where the local community can view art and other media, on the other. Local artists can exhibit their work at the space, which was created to expose the local community to talent and opportunity. Our art benefits from both the diversity and connection of its members. As a multidisciplinary collective, Heavenly Dogs has no limits. Its artists work in many mediums, including painting, sculpture, music, printmaking, and installation. The collective now has over 20 members, and it is still growing. The studio offers the fully operational workspace and gallery for the artists. It is located in Hamtramck and is available for rent. KO Studio and Gallery is an ideal space for creative arts. It is a gallery that showcases "outsider" art - graffiti, low-brow, and pop art. The studio also hosts a variety of events. They vary from comedy shows and musical performances to clothing pop-ups.
