  • Detroit, Michigan 48226
    ADVANCE PROGRAMS for Detroit Meetings of Theatre Library Association (Wednesday, July 7, 1965) and Music Library Association (Thursday and Friday July 8 and 9, 1965) This year it has been possible to work out a measure of coordination between the meetings of these two specialized associations concerned with the performing arts. The meetings are being held on successive days in Detroit's Cultural Center with headquarters in the Detroit Public Library's rebuilt and greatly enlarged Main Library at 5201 Woodward Avenue. There will be excursions to the opening night of the Meadow Brook Festival at Oakland University and to Ann Arbor for a day of meetings at the University of Michigan's new School of Music building. Details of the programs follow. Program chairman for the Theatre Library Association meeting is Barnard Hewitt of the University of Illinois' Department of Speech and Theatre. Program chairman for the Music Library Association meeting is Forrest H. Alter of the Flint Public Library's Art, Music and Drama Department. Local arrangements chairman for the two meetings is Kurtz Myers of the Detroit Public Library's Music and Performing Arts Department, assisted by William Hulsker of the Wayne State University General Library (Humanities Division) and William J. Weichlein, University of Michigan School of Music. It is hoped that we will have a good representation of our memberships at these meetings and that a substantial number of the librarians attending the American Library Association Conference in Cabo Hall, who are interested in the performing arts as an area for library service, will join us for some of our programs.

The essence of city life throughout the world is defined by expressive, and sometimes distinctive, public spaces that epitomize community by drawing diverse populations together and expressing vitality through interaction, activities and events. From Tbilisi to Miami Beach, the best cultural districts in the world combine leisure, commerce and performance to create an all-inclusive hub and welcoming destination for the public. Together with our partner, Midtown Detroit Inc. (MDI), we know that the public space in Detroit’s cultural district will make our community stronger. Therefore, we are setting out to create a more vibrant, sustainable Midtown neighborhood for the residents of our region, as well as visitors from around the globe. With many innovative and forward-thinking cultural centers as our inspiration, we seek to create one of this community’s most attractive and diverse gathering places on the exterior grounds of the Detroit Institute of Art (DIA), one’s of world’s preeminent museums, as we also forge a sense of connectedness between the neighboring institutions including the Charles H.
