Ossian Sweet Project Community Meeting #1

The City of Detroit is hosting its first Community Meeting on the 
Ossian Sweet Project. Recently, the City of Detroit General Services Department was awarded funding from the American Rescue Plan Act (“ARPA”) to fund two initiatives pursuant to the development of a public space that commemorates and memorializes the history and legacy of Dr. Ossian Sweet and the influence of the events that unfolded in 1925: an outdoor Educational Plaza & the Historic Interpretive Center Master Plan. 

Please attend our meeting on Thursday, April 27, 2023 at 6pm at Butzel Family Center to learn more about the Ossian Sweet story and provide input on the design of the Educational Plaza. Food will be provided.
