On display: May 21, 2025 - June 21, 2025
Opening Reception: Friday, May 23, 2025, 5 pm - 8 pm
The Scarab Club turns up the heat with Something Hot, an electrifying showcase of Detroit’s rising and established creative forces. This exhibition is a celebration of artists from Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z—the generations that are shaping the now and next of Detroit’s art scene. Their work is bold, captivating, and, above all, hot—a must-see for anyone who loves powerful, forward-thinking art.
Detroit has long been a city of artistic innovation, and the Scarab Club has been a home for generations of creatives. While we honor the living legends who have built this community, Something Hot '25 shifts the spotlight to the artists defining today’s moment. These are the risk-takers, storytellers, and visionaries forging new paths, pushing boundaries, and reflecting the energy of a city in constant motion.
Expect work that is fresh, dynamic, and unfiltered, mirroring the cultural heat of Detroit’s summers—vibrant, intense, and unforgettable. This isn’t just a show; it’s an introduction to the creative voices shaping the future.
