Holy cow! Year two…read moreof Maker Faire here in Detroit was faboo! Despite the heat everything was just killer. From the outside with their great tents featuring the best local and national techy/creative/innovative organizations and hackerspaces, local businesses selling their wares (t-shirts, food, etc) and amazing things to see and do (like the giant mousetrap, the massive bikes, gokart races, Theatre Bizarre, and the huge ass dragon that spits fire and scared the bejeebus out of my 3 year old cousin) there was plenty going on to make your visit worth your while. Some local eats from Buddy's Pizza, Avalon Breads, and Treat Dreams rounded out the tastes and there were even tunes from local bands in case you wanted your socks rocked off. Adding to the fun was also the indoor displays in the museum. Tickets to the event included entrance to The Henry Ford Museum so not only did you have all that amazingness that they had to offer there were also great MF bits to check out like crafty spaces for kids, tutorials on how to knit/crochet, and the Handmade Detroit section featuring a craft fair from locals selling good from artwork to jewelry, make up and housewares. NEAT! Also loved the free app you could download for the faire. Made the event even more interactive. It included the schedules, maps, and a game wherein you scanned all the checkpoints to enter into a drawing to win some prizes. Totally sweet. Extra props to the cupcake car rolling around and the water swing which I was sincerely sad I didn't get to take a ride on. Next year! I'm already eagerly anticipating their return!

Have been to the Henry Ford Museum many times, but this is a first for the Maker Faire. Lots of…read moreinnovations, crafts for kids, new ideas, & lots of robotics. This year included a large Star Wars & Star Trek exhibition, which was a huge hit. Many people in costumes & photos could be taken with Star Wars characters. There were many outside activities as well: live music, rides, go carts, robotic competition, crazy bikes, etc. The only downside was not too many food places & the few that were there were crowded & only a few places to sit & eat. Also, it was sunny & hot. No water or drink vendors, except for the beer garden. It was fun & different. Would definitely recommend & will go again! Very nice elite event.

During our week of training at the Dearborn Inn, our organization scheduled Thursday night's dinner…read moreat the Henry Ford Estate (Fair Lane / Home of Clara & Henry Ford). As a novice of woodworking, I was blown-away by the intricate woodwork and finishings throughout the home. The three ladies that lead our tour of the home shared many interesting details about the property, its restoration, and details of Clara and Henry's years at the estate. Many of the restoration stories, like finding a tub for Henry's bathroom or how Clara had a section repainted white were intriguing. Even though much of the home, especially the second floor, is still being restored it was a fascinating experience.

The site here is open for limited hours and is fenced off from the surrounding university and…read moreparkland, which I guess is their right but which nonetheless was annoying for me as a visitor. There wasn't much actually open amongst the majestic-looking buildings while I was there, but the picnic area was hopping. The signage was bilingual-in English and Arabic-and what appeared to be a Yemeni wedding seemed to be taking place. The juxtaposition of the estate of an industrialist (or robber baron, or visionary, or racist, depending on your point of view) with a distinctive immigrant community makes for a striking reflection on Americana. The grounds include some gardens, and a lake with a path around it. Access to the river is limited, but it didn't look like that impressive of a river. The greenery is more worthwhile.
