A gallery in Detroit for objects built slowly, shown deliberately, and made to live with.

About

Take Me Home is a gallery and design space in Detroit’s Little Village showing sculptural ceramics, collectible design, and limited-edition work. Housed at the Cadillac Arts Centre, the gallery presents a rotating program of exhibitions alongside an edited selection of work available to acquire.

The gallery sits within a neighborhood being shaped by a new generation of Detroit makers, artists, designers, and cultural spaces. Take Me Home contributes to that ecosystem with a program focused on material practice, objects, and work built at a deliberate pace.

Programming moves through seasonal exhibitions, studio-led projects, and collaborations developed on site. Each show is conceived as both a presentation and an invitation — to look closely, to live with the work, and to understand where and how it was made.

Meet the Founders

Take Me Home was co-founded by artists Jim Schatz and Peter Souza Jr. as an extension of their shared practice — a place for collaborative projects, solo presentations, commissions, and new work developed in and around Detroit.

Schatz is an artist, designer, and founder of J Schatz Studio. Working primarily in clay, his practice moves between sculpture, design, and one-of-a-kind works that engage themes of material transformation, queer embodiment, and the emotional charge of objects made by hand.

Souza is an artist and maker working across wood, image, form, and installation. His work explores memory, identity, presence, and the emotional life of objects. Alongside his studio practice, Souza leads the Detroit design-build firm Peter Detroit and is a partner in J Schatz Studio.

Together, Schatz and Souza created Take Me Home as a space for work with presence — objects made with care, shown with intention, and designed to remain in conversation with the lives around them.

Take Me Home begins with a simple human desire: to be drawn toward someone or something, to find connection, and to create a place of belonging. Rooted in Detroit and shaped by our shared life, this space brings together art, design, and handmade objects that make home feel more personal and more alive. We believe the things we live with matter — that objects can hold memory, beauty, comfort, and love, and that the spaces we create around ourselves become expressions of who we are and how we live.
