Cranbrook Institute of Science-WDC Weekend

[HotRodGirl]

If any of you are staying over Sunday into Monday and would like to do something different while here I will recommend the Cranbrook Educational Community its located at 39221 Woodward Avenue in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan

History
More than 200,000 visitors flock to Cranbrook Institute of Science each year, making it one of the region’s best known museum of natural history.

Founded in 1904 by Detroit philanthropists George and Ellen Booth, Cranbrook is an internationally renowned center for art, education and science located in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Cranbrook Institute of Science is an integral part of that community, having served area schoolchildren and families since its creation in 1930.

Visit the planetarium if at all possible it's excellent
All the information you need is posted on their website.........

Another really good one is the Henry Ford Museum too... I know no Chevy's there, but it's full of history and really cool exhibits. I wish I had time to go to both while I'm there!
