Labor day weekend has passed, the kids are back to school and fall weather is in the air. It’s (almost) autumn in Detroit. To me that means football games, cider mills and the leaves changing colors. Oh, and sweatshirt weather—I love my hoodies.
We have plenty of beautiful days ahead of us—make sure to enjoy every minute.
1. Dally in the Alley - The annual eclectic festival celebrates life in the Cass Corridor. Beer, music and art—what more can you ask for? September 10th.
2. Arts & Apples Festival - Bring on the fall weather! Fine art, live entertainment, kids zones, plenty of food and apples. September 9—11th.
