Where have we been?

Where have we been?

Where are we now?

Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3

Phase 1 (2016)

We recruited stakeholders to analyze the problem, created a beginning set of system elements, and began considering a framework for a Detroit community development system.

Phase 2 (2017-2018)

We formed an Advisory Council, conducted extensive research resulting in a specific set of challenges and created Task Forces to respond to those challenges and develop test-projects for most of the elements.

Phase 3 (2019-2020)

Stakeholders will champion elements of the system, working closely with CDOs and GROs, by “test-piloting” project ideas:

  • Coordination of Capacity Building Services
  • Community Development Career Navigation Model
  • Neighborhood Vitality Success Framework
  • Neighborhood Voice and Advocacy Framework
  • At least two city-CDO funded partnerships

Simultaneously we will:

  • Activate the System Capitalization element
  • Establish a governance/oversight structure
  • Develop a process to resolve CDO coverage for all neighborhoods

Updates from the Center of Detroit Arts & Culture at Marygrove

October 5, 2020

From Mary Lou Greene, Interim Director, Arts & Culture at Marygrove:

“Greetings to the Arts & Culture community at Marygrove!
As of September 1st, the Center of Detroit Arts & Culture at Marygrove (also known as CDAC) became fully incorporated into the Marygrove Conservancy as a mainstay program and is hereby introduced as Marygrove Conservancy Department of Arts & Culture. This change means that f.k.a. CDAC’s social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter) will now reside under Marygrove Conservancy online presence. Those previously subscribed to f.k.a. CDAC’s newsletter will have their contact information migrated to Marygrove Conservancy’s database under Marygrove Conservancy Arts & Culture. Subscribers may opt-out from continuing their subscription now under Marygrove Conservancy.
Existing programs like the Contemporary American Authors Lecture Series, Institute of Detroit Studies, and the Institute of Arts Infused Education will remain at the Marygrove Campus. Other wonderful programs you know and love will also continue to be here as well, but logistics will be handled by the respective organizations. You will be able to navigate to each respective programs’ website from the Marygrove Conservancy Department of Arts & Culture’s website and social media platforms.
Furthermore, the Marygrove Conservancy Department of Arts & Culture will continue to provide space to artists and organizations to grow and provide the programming they do best. For more information, please reach out to our program director, Mary Lou Greene at mgreene@marygroveconservancy.org.

Visit them at the new Marygrove Conservancy Department of Arts & Culture website for more information.”
