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.
Wine and dine your date at the sumptuous La Dolce Vita. This hidden gem of a restaurant is known as one of the most romantic Italian venues in the city. Guests can choose to sit inside, where the classical, cathedral architecture and candlelight creates the perfect mood, or in the courtyard outside, where you can dine under the stars. No matter where you sit, though, the food is divine!
Stop by one of Southeastern Michigan’s most popular tourist attractions. Motown Museum preserves and cultivates Motown in its first headquarters.
