Art at the Crofoot

Looking for a location for a film screening, film shoot, fashion show, or art oriented event? The Crofoot is the place.

Our interior design work was a collaboration of local artists under the guidance of designers Patricia Slack and Jeremy Hanson of The River’s Edge Gallery. We are pleased to own a variety of tables and art pieces made by some of Detroit's most infamous artists. Every Friday the Crofoot partners with Candyland Gallery for our weekly art explosion, Phonotropic. We pride ourselves on being connected to, and part of the Metro Detroit art scene.

Along with fashion shows, photo and video shoots, film screenings, art shows, wedding receptions, bar/bat mitzvahs, and banquets, the Crofoot specializes in live music. The Crofoot was recently voted Detroit's best concert venue by the Detroit Metro Times. In our first year and a half of operations we produced over 500 live events (including appearances by First Lady Michelle Obama, Bill Cosby, John Waters, and musical performances by Jimmy Eat World, The National, RZA, Girl Talk, The New Pornographers, Craig Owens, Method Man & Redman, Stars, Band of Horses, Vampire Weekend, EL-P, 3OH!3 and more.

The Crofoot is eager to support Michigan filmmakers, and the burgeoning Michigan film industry. On April 4, 2009 the Crofoot hosted a Michigan Movie Networking event, this was the first of many film events at our complex (Read more here).

The Crofoot is a frequent shooting location for Iron Core Media, and we work closely with Wolfman Mac and Nightmare Sinema.

We teamed up with post hardcore band Chiodos and acclaimed director Darren Doane to shoot a video for "The Undertaker's Thirst For Revenge Is Unquenchable (The Final Battle)"on the Phoenix Center in downtown Pontiac, MI. And we hosted Detroit’s first showing of The Flaming Lips film Christmas on Mars and Metro Detroit's Premiere of “Anvil: The Story of Anvil”.
