Join Cranbrook Art Museum and Cranbrook Academy of Art for Crandemonium, our signature fall fundraiser celebrating Cranbrook’s lasting impact on the cultural landscape of Detroit and beyond.

This high-energy evening kicks off with an exclusive first look at a landmark exhibition featuring select works from Jennifer Gilbert’s private art collection, hosted at The Shepherd ahead of its public debut.

Sponsors at the $10,000 level and above are invited for the Sponsor’s Preview and will join co-curators Nick Cave (MFA Fiber 1989) and Laura Mott, Chief Curator of Cranbrook Art Museum, for a private curator-led tour.

Exhibition Preview and Dinner guests will enjoy early access to the exhibition during a vibrant strolling dinner in the gallery.

The celebration continues just across the street with Art After Dark at Stanton Yard—featuring a live DJ, dancing, dessert, and an art installation.

For sponsorship opportunities, please contact Caryn Emmer at cemmer@cranbrook.edu.
