Things To Do in Detroit, MI
DIY Street Fair
Head over to Ferndale for a fun weekend at the DIY Street Fair. This 2-day, 3-night festival showcases local artists, crafters, businesses, organizations, musicians, restaurants, brewers and others who base their work on creativity and a “do-it-yourself” work ethic. Entrance is free, but bring some cash because you are sure to find something to purchase at the Marketplace, Record Shop, Beer Garden or Restaurant Row.
Detroit Pistons
Love basketball? Come by the Palace of Auburn Hills to see the Detroit Pistons rule the court. Treated like royalty by their loyal fans, this sports team has won three championships since joining the NBA in 1948, most recently in 2004, and has numerous conference and division titles under their belt. Wear a patriotic combination of red, white and blue to support this All-American team!
Holocaust Memorial Center
Learn about an unforgettably tragic time in history at the Holocaust Memorial Center, America’s first museum devoted to the memory of the Holocaust. Opened in 1984, this museum displays maps, posters, photographs and artifacts outlining the culture and history of Jews in Europe before, during and after the Holocaust. The HMC is also dedicated to honoring those who, both in the past and today, have risked their own lives to help their fellow human beings.
