in 2014, the culture of cult art series was created to showcase local and nationally recognized talent. through a set of themes, artists come together to help break down the high-brow stigma of art collectives and create a gallery of familiar content. taking place in marquette, michigan - the culture of cult is a unique, one-night only “pop-up” style art show. bi-annually, we encourge artists to contribute in the juried exhibitions, and welcome patrons to share their experiences through social media.
Shows Are Always Free of Charge We do this because we believe that art and expression is more important than dollars, and hope you do too.
Casualties presents Culture of Cults "Board to Death", an art show dedicated to board riding. Artists will create tribute graphics of their favorite boards across skate, surf and snow, all rendered on skateboards. These skateboards will then be auctioned off at the end of the show, and all of the profits will go to benefit the Marquette Skate Park for much needed repairs and features.

Decades & Distortion" brings a new format to the Culture of Cult. Taking 40 artists and randomly assigning them a decade of the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's or 2000's - they are tasked with redesigning a gig poster or album art from the musician or band they feel was the most influential to them. This will make for an awesome collection of classic and iconic bands & performers with the modern look of some of the bests artists of today.
