EVENTS CALENDAR: “AHA Detroit Go Red for Women”

The Go Red for Women experience continues to be the cornerstone of the Go Red for Women movement in local communities. This empowering gathering focuses on preventing heart disease and stroke, shares stories of people impacted by this issue and raises critically-needed funds to support research and education initiatives. Together, we are highlighting the Faces of Heart and bringing awareness to the social determinants of health that disproportionately impact women. Women’s health is an equity issue.

Join us as we come together in support of the American Heart Association mission to be a relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives.

Plan now to attend online Feb. 26, 2021!

EVENTS CALENDAR: “Detroit Style: Car Design in the Motor City” at the DIA


Photo: “Toronado Proposal,” 1968, Roger Hughet

Detroit designers have always led the way in car design. The futuristic concept cars, roaring muscle cars, and sleek racers designed in and around the city shape our ideas of what a car can be. Working on paper, in clay, and in metal, their ideas drive American car culture and inform the way we get around every day.

This exhibition “Detroit Style: Car Design in the Motor City, 1950–2020” organized by the Detroit Institute of Arts will highlight the artistry and influence of Detroit car designers working between 1950 and the present day. It will bring together 12 coupes and sedans designed across that 70-year period to highlight significant achievements in style and technology. The 12 cars include unique examples of experimental show cars created for display and iconic production models sold to the mass market. Design drawings and photographs will allow you to imagine the creative and innovative processes that bring a vehicle from the drawing board to the street.

Nov. 15, 2020 – June 27, 2021 @ The Detroit Institute of Arts.
