Black On
Both Sides
We are a unique pop-up event showcasing the brilliance of Detroit’s historic Black hospitality. We believe in the opulence that is encountered in the city every day, yet rarely seen and celebrated. We welcome all to come and enjoy unabashed Black Magic! We are BLACK ON BOTH SIDES.
