Detroit Moxie's Weekend Roundup

Batter up! The Detroit Tigers home opener at Comerica Park is tomorrow. This is a glorious time of year; baseball games, barbeques and fireworks are on the horizon. I just hope Mother Nature obliges and sends us warm weather and sunshine soon.

Weekend Roundup

1. Art X Detroit - This 5-day multidisciplinary art experience celebrates Kresge artists and fellows in many different venues. Get your art on! April 6-10

2. Now Hear This! - The Detroit Tap Repertory presents an evening of tap dancing like you haven't seen before! Special guests will be on hand to perform hip hop, swing, and a Michael Jackson tribute. April 8th.

3. Three Stooges Festival - Watch the antics of Larry, Curly and Moe on the big screen. Each showing includes a 30 minute concert featuring their Barton Theatre Pipe Organ. April 8th & 9th.

4. Group Tour De Hood ride - Jump on your bike and head out for a 25 mile ride through Detroit to celebrate International Obscura Day. Sites include Indian Village, The Heidelberg Project, St. Anne's Cathedral, and the old Michigan Theatre. April 9th.

5. Cocktails & Cameras Obscura at the Imagination Station - The Imagination Station, two blighted houses that sit across from Michigan Central Station, will be turned into a "camera obscura." This International Obscura Day event features time lapsed photography of the old train station. April 9th.

Don't forget! The Tigers home opener is Friday, April 8th and Fakes, Forgeries and Mysteries closes at the DIA on Sunday, April 10th.

Detroit Symphony Orchestra has resolved their contract dispute, they are giving FREE CONCERTS this weekend! One on Saturday night and one on Sunday afternoon at 3. I'll be at the Sunday one. Check out their website for tickets.

Thanks Toka! I believe they are sold out, though. Apparently, they went very quickly which is a good sign. Have fun on Sunday!

Plymouth Whalers advanced to the second round of the OHL playoffs and play their first home game of this round against the Owen Sound Attack Saturday at Compuware Arena in Plymouth :)
