Housed in a storefront built in 1915, the space was conceived to be flexible and open to a multitude of creative endeavors. It is a place to make, talk about, and exhibit artwork by artists in the Metro - Detroit area and beyond.

Butter is located at 814 West Eleven Mile Road, in Royal Oak, Michigan.
Parking is available behind the building.

2739 Edwin presents:
"Home for the Holidays" a live digital sight/sound performance by the collective "nospectacle"
Doors open at 8pm, performance starts at 9pm. Suggested donation $5.
The trio of digital artists that make up nospectacle -- Christopher
McNamara, Jennifer Paull and Walter Wasacz
-- bring with them
backgrounds in electronic arts, performance, photography, video
production and music criticism. Together, they stir up a sonic and
visual experience using original and found material that they edit and
remix live. The process is a perpetual motion machine, the medium
becomes the message. The group appeared at the 2010 MUTEK festival in
Montreal, Detroit's Movement in 2008 and has performed at the Detroit
Film Theatre, the Max M. Fisher Music Center and Cranbrook Art Museum.
