Detroit Historical Museum Shows Off 3 New Exhibits

DETROIT (AP).- The Detroit Historical Museum is showing off three new exhibits. The exhibits that just opened at the museum in Detroit’s Midtown area include “Fabulous 5: Detroit’s Award Winners,” the latest installment of “New to the Collection” and a “Detroit Artists Showcase” featuring the work of Janet Anderson. The exhibit on award winners focuses on people such as Motown star Diana Ross who have been given major honors. “New to the Collection” includes glasses worn by Detroit radio personality Dick Purtan and a scorecard from when Detroit Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga missed a perfect game last season when an umpire’s wrong call cost him what would have been the final out. The “Detroit Artists Showcase” looks at Anderson’s illustrations of area buildings and landmarks.
