Lansing’s gallery and museum scene lively, despite losing a big one

The Lansing area lost the Lansing Art Gallery this year, but the local arts scene remains vibrant with several other venues. The Michigan History Museum offers immersive exhibits on state history, including the special exhibition “Black Bottom Street View” about Detroit’s historic neighborhood. The MSU Museum is undergoing an 18-month renovation but hosts a pop-up exhibition “Physical Spells [The Wor(l)d in the Atom]” featuring artist Violeta López López. The Nelson Gallery in downtown Lansing continues to showcase local contemporary art and plans holiday events, while Struk Studio, founded in 2023 by David Such, offers a contemporary mixed bag of works.
