Detroit: A City of Neighborhoods, featuring the Art of Sam Karres

Celebrate the opening of Echoes of the Past: Greektown as Seen by Sam Karres in Clark Library’s Exhibit Space with a special Third Thursday dedicated to the City of Detroit and its many neighborhoods! Hear from Annelie Zissis and Arthur Pfeifer-Rubey, exhibit curators and Library Engagement Fellows, as they discuss the life and work of Detroit artist Sam Karres, who extensively sketched daily life in Greektown in the late 20th century, and view maps of Detroit’s growth and change over the centuries. 

The Curators’ presentation will begin at 4:15pm in Clark Library’s Instruction Space. They'll stick around for the rest of the event to answer questions and give additional insight into the exhibit.

Join us (on the 2nd floor of Hatcher) for Third Thursdays at the Library, a themed monthly open house where we share materials from our collections. While you’re here, pick up a passport and collect a stamp from each of the four Third Thursday Open Houses — Asia Library, Clark Library, International Studies, and Special Collections Research Center — to collect a free poster!
