It’s preview party time for the Detroit Area Art Deco Society as the mid-century enthusiasts open up the Michigan Modernism Exposition on April 23, 7 – 10 p.m. The annual art deco affair allows guests first dibs on some of the best 20th century antiques and fine arts from the international market while enjoying live music by Sarah Grogan and the SG Ensemble. This year Macy’s Lakeshore Grill will be presenting a delicious variety of passed hors d’oeuvres along with select wines.

For the second year, the show features a special exhibition featuring student photography of some of the most famous Art Deco structures in Metropolitan Detroit. The exhibition, which is a collaborative effort with Oakland Community College, was coordinated by DAADS Board Members Gary Spondike and historic preservation consultant Rebecca Binno Savage.

The Michigan Modernism Exposition is located at the Southfield Pavilion.
