In a series of posts we are rolling out the art and artists of the Gift of Art Holiday Exhibition — on-going now through January 3, 2021. Learn about the artists, view their work and…SHOP THE SHOW! We understand not everyone can get out during this challenging time but, there’s been no better time for the healing power and beauty of art in our lives. And, HERE we are bringing the show to you!
All the art in this exhibition is priced for giving and collecting (all originals, under $500). Contact Irwin House Gallery to inquire about or purchase any work of art: 313.932.7690 or irwinhousegallery@gmail.com.
It seemed only befitting to begin with the exhibition’s Curator and Artist-in-Residence, Jonathan Harris….

Jonathan Harris is an emerging, visual artist who was born and raised in the city of Detroit. After attending The Detroit School for the Fine and Performing Arts, he attended Henry Ford Community College and Oakland University, where he majored in Graphic Design and minored in Studio Art. Working in acrylic paint, oil, pen and charcoal, he stretches the limits of his media by exploring and perfecting a range of styles in Fine Art. His work is emotive and focuses largely on current events, bringing awareness to world and social experience, and shining a light on the African American experience. Harris is currently serving an Artist Residency at the Irwin House Gallery which encompasses innovative arts programming that he is presenting and curating in collaboration with the gallery, the development of new work and a Spring 2021 mural project, and culminates in a solo exhibition. His work is being vastly collected and has been presented during special programs at the Detroit Institute of Arts and in local galleries.
