Pitch Night Detroit
ArtPrize was thrilled to partner with Design Core Detroit and Detroit Month of Design to present Pitch Night Detroit 2026.
Five designers were selected to take the stage for five minutes each, pitching bold, original concepts to a panel of five jurors—all competing for a $10,000 grant to bring their work to life at the 2026 ArtPrize event.
This grant is dedicated to design-driven proposals from designers 18 years and older, with preference given to those based in Wayne County, Michigan. In addition to the grant, the selected designer will receive complimentary ArtPrize registration and hands-on support in securing a high-visibility exhibition venue during the event.
