The World Series has started and our beloved Detroit Tigers aren’t in the game. They did give us an amazing season filled with excitement and I thank them for that. We still have plenty of sports to go around—the Red Wings play Friday and Saturday night and the Detroit Lions take the field on Sunday. And… the Lions sold out Ford Field so we won’t have a blackout.

Get out there and explore Detroit this weekend!

Weekend Roundup

1. The Next Big Thing - Model D is celebrating all the many, many people and projects that are transforming Detroit—one little thing at a time. Featuring food, music, art, creative projects and the Hatch-Off! October 21st.

2. Detroit Revealed: Photographs 2000-2010 - Detroit has changed in many ways over the past decade and this exhibit focuses on our neighborhoods, factories and more through photos and video. Through April 8, 2012.

5. Hallowe'en in Greenfield Village - Does the commercialization of Halloween have you down? Step back to the turn-of-the-20th century for a frightfully good time. Carved jack-o-lanterns, the Headless Horseman and treats! October 21—23.
