The great hall of the DIA

Patrick and I became members of the DIA during our visit. We were members at the Cincinnati Art Museum and really found it worthwhile.

I'll admit that after purchasing the membership, we learned that 90 percent of the DIA is closed for remodeling until November, but we're still excited. We'll have four free tickets to all exhibits including the upcoming Ansel Adams exhibit, as well as discounts to lectures, discounts to films at the Detroit Film Theater and more. Like in Cincinnati, they have special Friday night gatherings. A recent jazz show featured Freddy Cole, the brother of Nat King Cole.

There are a zillion other benefits. I can't wait to use them.
