The Detroit Institute of Arts has announced that all Inside/Out 2025 sites throughout Davisburg, Springfield Township and Lake Orion are on display now.
Community members can expect to see 11 different reproductions in Lake Orion and nine in Davisburg and Springfield Township. The selections are from the DIA collection and include works by Edgar Degas, Norval Morrisseau, Maria Oakey Dewing, and more.
The purpose of the program, which began in 2010, is to connect people in the community with art in an accessible way, making art a shared experience and part of everyday life beyond the museum’s walls.
“We’re honored to bring Inside|Out to communities in southeastern Michigan and connect people with the museum’s collection in new and exciting ways,” Julie McFarland, the executive director of public affairs and engagement for the DIA, said in a statement. “This year, with reproductions placed across Oakland County, we hope this small representation of the collection not only brings art to people’s everyday lives but also inspires a visit to the museum.”
The program began by displaying reproductions of famous works of art on city streets in Metro Detroit. Early participating cities included Birmingham, Livonia, Rochester, Novi, New Baltimore, Romeo, Sterling Heights and St. Clair Shores.
Over the years, the program expanded its reach and continues to partner with communities throughout Macomb, Oakland, and Wayne counties and other communities.
At the end of the season, the reproductions are taken down, and the process begins again the following year with new locations and artworks.
Displays can be seen at these locations in Lake Orion:
47 N Broadway St.; 24 W Flint St.; Children’s Park; Flint Street Alley; Green Hippo Gifts; Lake Orion Village Hall; Lucky’s Natural Foods, LLC; Oat Soda Lake Orion; Orion Art Center.

This year’s Inside/Out experience includes a connection to new interactive web pages at dia.org/insideout featuring detailed maps and additional information on each artwork for every participating community.
