Dear Friends and Supporters:

This past year at the Detroit Historical Society has been pivotal as the focus of our Past>Forward Campaign expanded beyond fundraising, research and planning to include the implementation of some of the early aspects of our transformational plan to reinvent ourselves.

The year began with the public launch of the campaign, with a media event that also announced the concept of the Detroit Historical Museum’s upcoming outdoor attraction — Legends Plaza. Five outstanding Detroit legends — Dave Bing, Carmen Harlan, Al Kaline, Elmore Leonard and Dick Purtan — cast their hands and signatures in cement, kicking off a year that saw an impressive roster of our city’s luminaries from sports, entertainment and media do the same.

The year continued with a “business as usual” look to the outside world with the exhibit openings, programs, tours and special events that our members, friends and school children know and appreciate, while a flurry of additional activity linked to our collective future bubbled just beneath the surface.

The year ended with the Detroit Historical Museum temporarily closing to the public and begin- ning its dramatic transformation. With its own renovation imminent, plans for the Dossin Great Lakes Museum began taking shape and the digitization of thousands of important artifacts from our vast collection moved forward and became a popular addition to our newly enhanced and redesigned website.

The new website and publications like this report have also been revitalized by the new Society branding that was created by Southfield-based Doner. As is evident on the cover, the new Detroit Historical Society wordmark is accompanied by a new tagline that we think truly reflects our mis- sion and where we are as an organization — “Where the Past is Present.” We believe that this new Society brand gives us a clean, updated look as we upgrade our offerings to reflect the realities of the 21st century, while maintaining our commitment to our mission as the region’s storyteller.

Your generosity has helped us reach past the two-thirds mark of our $20.1 million Past>Forward Campaign goal, and for that we express our deepest thanks. We also express our appreciation to our three Campaign Co-chairs — Kevin Broderick, Ann Greenstone and David Nicholson — for their continued leadership and commitment to its success.

Thank you for supporting the Detroit Historical Society at this pivotal and important time, when the promises of our campaign are quickly becoming realities. Enjoy reading the details of our accomplishments in the past year and join us in looking forward to a truly amazing year ahead.

Sincerely,

Thomas C. Buhl Robert A. Bury President Executive Director and CEO Detroit Historical Society Detroit Historical Society 2 2 DETROIT HISTORICAL SOCIETY

John A. and Marlene L. Boll (left) and Earl Stilson (right) have both given significant gifts to the Past>Forward Campaign in support of the Dossin Great Lakes Museum. The Boll’s $500,000 contribution via their foundation will support the complete redesign of the main gallery and installation of the new Built By the River permanent exhibition. Stilson’s gift will enable the Society to enhance the pavilion housing the Miss Pepsi championship hydroplane and add a boat simulator experience at the Belle Isle attraction. MISSION The Detroit Historical Society educates and inspires our community and visitors by preserving and portraying our region’s shared history through dynamic exhibits and experiences.

VISION To create a shared sense of community and pride by celebrating the history and the unique culture of our region.
