Detroit Moxie's Weekend Roundup

Starship might have built the city on Rock and Roll but Detroit was built on Motown, cars and grit! This weekend in Detroit we have art, more art, old-timey baseball, Starship and more. Get out there and enjoy Detroit!

 1. Ann Arbor Art Fairs - The largest art fair in Michigan is now comprised of four art fairs, including the original, over 5 days. Take in all the art your heart can muster and bring your patience.  July 18—21.

2. Rockin' on the Riverfront (Facebook link) - We built this city on Rock and Roll! The GM Riverfront stage continues to rock out with Starship featuring Mickey Thomas in this free concert. July 20th.

3. Quake on the Lake - The hydroplane races continue on the lake with the APBA World Championships and entertainment from Mitch Ryder. July 20—22.

4. Figment Detroit - Belle Isle is once again home to this participatory art event that encourages visitors to partipate as artists and creators. July 21—22.

5. Greenfield Village Historic Baseball - The Greenfield Village Lah-De-Dahs Baseball Club play by the rules of 1867 and sport neckties in this gentlemanly game. Play ball! July 21—22.

Ashley,
And I love your comment! You made my day. Enjoy the movie. In case you didn't know, the Redford Theatre is gorgeous and there is a short pipe organ concert before each movie. Also, real butter!
