- The Detroit Science CenterThe mission of the Detroit Science Center is to inspire Detroit area children and their families to discover and appreciate science, technology and engineering in a dynamic, fun learning environment. Founded by Detroit businessman and philanthropist Dexter Ferry nearly 30 years ago, the Detroit Science Center was among the first centers for scientific exploration and learning in the country to include an IMAX® Dome Theatre. An exhibit floor and program plan encouraged hands-on interaction, exploration and study of science and technology. Plans to transform the Detroit Science Center into a leading center for science education began in late 1998. In December 1999, the Science Center broke ground on its $30 million expansion and renovation. More than doubling in size, the Detroit Science Center would offer 110,000 square feet of scientific exploration, including Michigan’s only IMAX® Dome Theatre; a state-of-the-art digital planetarium; the Ford Learning Resource Center learning environments; the DTE Energy Sparks Theater; the DaimlerChrysler Science Stage; an 8,700 square-foot Science Hall for traveling exhibits; five exhibit laboratories – General Motors Motion Laboratory, Dow Foundation Life Sciences Laboratory, Waves & Vibrations Laboratory, Matter & Energy Laboratory and SBC Children’s Gallery; and a Special Events Lobby.

- The Henry Ford Museum (Dearborn)It began as one man’s vision to document the genius of ordinary people by preserving the objects they used in the course of their everyday lives. It grew to become one of the largest collections of its kind ever assembled — a remarkable destination that brings American ideas and innovations to life. There are planes and trains and, of course, automobiles. Lincoln's "Death Chair" is there, and so is the Rosa Parks bus and Thomas Edison's test-tubed last breath. One of just two IMAX Dome theaters in metro Detroit is located here
