After two weekends of work by dozens of volunteers, the prep and priming of the risers of the upper portion of the Detroit Step is done. Volunteers aged 14 + with artistic skills are needed over the next 6to 8 weekends to paint the rocks, flowers, and other elements to complete the design phase. After the project’s final phase will be to varnish the completed mural to extend the life of the mural.

The Detroit Steps Project (DSP) is seeking artistically inclined volunteers to sign up for two-hour shifts over the next few weekends. They will paint the flowers, rocks, and other elements of the design that were approved by the city’s Art Commission. 

This multi-phase, community-led painting project is sponsored by the Sunnyside Neighborhood Association. DSP was launched in 2018 and has received two District 7 Participatory Budgeting funding grants and a Community Challenge Grant from the City. 

Interested volunteers may sign up here.
