THIS IS A NICE WAY TO SPEND A SATURDAY AFTERNOON WITH FRIENDS:
Most known for its quaint residential homes and tree lined streets, the inner-ring Detroit suburb of Berkley, Michigan has become one of the most desirable small cities in the United States. Berkely is much more than cute bungalows though. There are dozens of unique small businesses some of which have been around generations while others are opening all the time. Plus the city itself is working on some exciting projects and infrastructure to make the retail corridors and streetscapes even better than they already are.

On this tour our local guide will take you inside small businesses and introduce you to entrepreneurs along the Coolidge corridor all the while providing you with a deeper look into the city's history, realities and what the future has in store for the 2.6 sq. mi. City of Berkley.

Peak behind the curtain at one of Detroit’s most iconic cultural landmarks—the Fisher Theatre. Originally opened in 1928 as a movie palace and later transformed into a premier venue for live Broadway performances, the Fisher blends opulence, Art Deco design, and nearly a century of theatrical history. This exclusive tour offers rare access to the theatre’s grand architecture, backstage spaces, and stories that have unfolded both on and off the stage. Learn how the Fisher Theatre became a cornerstone of Detroit’s performing arts scene and a key stop on the national Broadway tour circuit.

Come with us to the Moross House, Detroit’s oldest surviving brick residence, for a behind-the-scenes tour of this remarkable space where history and creativity meet. Built in the mid-19th century, the home has been meticulously restored and now houses the Schinkel Fine Art gallery and studio. Guests will explore the home’s original architecture, thoughtfully renovated interiors, and the lush, ivy-covered Detroit Secret Garden—featuring one of the oldest wisteria vines in the Midwest. As part of the tour, you'll view The Custom Build exhibition from the Metallaverse collection, a striking indoor-outdoor installation by the mother-son duo of Schinkel Fine Art. The exhibit, part of the Detroit Month of Design, uses aluminum and mixed media to explore the intersection of art, environment, and human experience. Formerly home to the Moross House Museum and the Detroit Garden Center, this East Jefferson landmark is a powerful blend of preservation, introspection, and contemporary vision.
