Detroit Institute of Arts
From our home in Grand Rapids, it’s just over a two hour drive to Detroit. In the past, we were frequent visitors to the “motor city” however we haven’t traveled to Detroit for several years.
Yesterday four of us decided to take a day trip to visit the well-known Detroit Institute of Arts. DIA is located in the downtown area adjacent to Wayne State University
We arrived in the morning and walked through the many halls to view the collections from various geographic areas: Africa, Middle East, Korea, Japan, China.
After a short lunch break in the museum’s cafeteria we continued viewing other collections for a few hours – modern, British, Dutch and Impressionist.
Below are some of my photos I took of the amazing works of art from our visit:
The museum is extremely well laid out and organized. It’s definitely a first class public attraction.
We definitely enjoyed our one-day visit. If you’re in the Detroit area, it’s worth a visit to the Detroit Institute of Arts.
