Detroit Historical Museum Visit - In the Neighborhood: Everyday Life on Hastings Street

Sun, June 30 • 1pm

Come tour this (self-guided) display from the Jewish Historical Society. Lecture at 2:30pm by Julie Dilaura: Schlussel Bathhouse Archaeology. In 1907, Louis Schlussel opened a bathhouse at the corner of Alfred and St. Antoine Streets, featuring Detroit’s first documented mikveh (Jewish ritual bath). Come learn about the 2019 archaeological dig that recovered a fascinating and forgotten slice of history. Lunch at Café DIA at noon. For more info, or to RSVP, contact Anita Fishman.

We will carpool from the Temple parking lot, leaving at 12:15pm. Attendees will pay their own museum admission and parking costs. Museum admission is $10/adult, $8/senior, $6/child and free for Detroit Historical Society members. Parking in the Detroit Historical Museum lot on Kirby St. is $9/car.
