More Than Motown: Black Historic Music Sites Besides Hitsville

Thu 22 August 2019
9:00 AM - 11:59 PM
Ended

No matter where you are, when you say the words "Detroit" and "music," someone's going to exclaim "Motown!" But Detroit's music history is much deeper and wider than Motown. There are some locations around the city that have been forgotten and are important in the telling of Detroit's black history, and the history of music. Please join Black Scroll Network Historian Jamon Jordan as he leads a musically rich bus tour of Black Bottom, Paradise Valley, Sugar Hill, Swing Jazz, Soul and Funk Music.  We Meet in front of the Charles H. Wright Museum for check-in at 8:45am. We depart at 9AM Sharp! We Return to the Wright Museum at 1PM! This bus tour is a school bus tour and will include restroom stops, as well as cold water and snacks.
