Detroit Institute of Arts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

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<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/p>\n<\/div>

After a short lunch break in the museum’s cafeteria we continued viewing other collections for a few hours – modern, British, Dutch and Impressionist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are some of my photos I took of the amazing works of art from our visit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
