Detroit’s Cass Café reopens for art exhibit honoring Detroit artists Jim and Lucille Nawara
Detroit's Cass Café, a beloved cultural hub that closed in 2022 after nearly 30 years, is temporarily reopening for a summer art exhibition honoring artists Jim and Lucille Nawara. The show, titled "Retrospective: A Life in Art," opens June 21 at the original location on Cass Avenue, presented by the gallery detroit contemporary. The Nawaras, central figures in Detroit's creative community for over 50 years, will attend the opening; their work spans paintings, prints, and drawings rooted in nature and memory, and has been exhibited at major institutions like the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Cleveland Museum of Art.
