96th Annual Meeting

Hear about our past year of accomplishments and learn what's planned for the future at this year’s Annual Meeting on Wednesday, October 10. Detroit Historical Society members and the general public are invited to meet Elana Rugh, our new Executive Director and CEO, who will lead the program for the first time. Having won the Institute of Museum and Library Services National Medal and the American Association for State and Local History Award of Merit and History in Progress Award this year, there will be much to recognize and celebrate.

During the program, the Society will also honor its 128 members who are celebrating five-year milestone membership anniversaries. Before the Annual Meeting program, all are welcome to enjoy free, docent-led tours of our new exhibitions and light refreshments. RSVP to 313.833.0242 or ericc@detroithistorical.org.
