Each spring, we celebrate the season with a Gala Get Together at the Dossin Great Lakes Museum.  We know that many of our guests look forward to this festive event and its beautiful riverfront venue as the start of summer in Detroit, but our circumstances this year required a creative redesign.  

The 2020 event will mark the end of summer. On August 29, we will host an outdoor strolling brunch with a press conference and ribbon cutting ceremony to thank the Dossin Outdoor Enhancement Campaign Donors and Dossin Gala Sponsors. If you would like to support the Dossin and attend the press conference, please consider joining our Honorary Host Committee by clicking below. 

We look forward to celebrating the Dossin Gala with you in our usual fashion in the spring of 2021. Until then, please enjoy the new outdoor spaces at the Dossin Great Lakes Museum, and visit the museum when it reopens this summer.
