Beverages are a key feature of this event, with plenty of alcoholic and non-alcoholic options available. Tickets get you 6 tokens to sample beverages from local businesses and breweries. General admission for people seeking alcoholic beverages will cost $30 in advance or $35 at the door. We also have a non-alcohol admission that can be purchased for $20 or $25 at the door, which will include tickets that can only be used on non-alcoholic beverages.

In addition to beverages, admission will also include yard games, music from a DJ on site, tarot readers, a silent auction, and some spooky encounters. Additional tasting tokens will be available. Onsite, we will also have food from area businesses available for purchase. Costumes are optional. Come on out and enjoy a spooky great time at the museum to celebrate the Halloween season!

Beer Tasting, Museum

Party at the Museum

Here at the Dearborn Historical Museum we work very hard to keep our wonderful museum going. We have dozens of volunteers who give their time to be docents, archivist, and to do the hands-on tasks like helping organize our artifacts and storage spaces. Yet everyone knows that after working hard, you need to have some fun. Which is why we are so excited about our upcoming event Party at the Museum!

Now this event is something that we have never done at the DHM before, but we really think it’s going to be great.

From 5pm to 11pm on Friday September 27th we will have a history, beer and Barbecue party. That’s right, rich history, great brews and tasty food all at your favorite local museum.

Tickets are 9 dollars a person at the door, but you can buy your ticket early and it will only be 8! That ticket gets you in the doors, a 12oz collectible glass mug, and a one free drink of your choice. We are going to have a selection of beers, a couple of wines and root beer (for those who don’t drink) on tap.

One of the awesome things about this event is that we are serving regional craft beers including some brews from Kuhnhenn Brewing Company and Dragonmead Mircobrewery. Every additional beer will be 4 dollars and 2 dollars for 6oz of wine.

Detroit BBQ is coming out and will cooking up some delicious mouth-watering food. 80s Inc. will be playing live music. The McFadden Ross house will be displaying beer inspired art my local artist Amy Stenger and an a collection of Stroh’s memorabilia. There really isn’t a better way to get your weekend started.

If you are looking for a place to stop by and get your tickets early here is a list of wonderful businesses that have our tickets;Family Dentistry, Gentlemen First, Steven Bernard Jewelers, Double Olive, Oakwood Muirhead Building, City Council Office, City Clerk’s Office and of course the Dearborn Historical Museum! Additionally Gentlemen First are offering a 3 dollar discount on a haircut if you purchase your ticket from them.

We are still looking for sponsors for this event. It’s a big event and we are hoping for some community support so if you or someone you know wants to help sponsor our event please contact the museum at (313) 565-3000.

We look forward to everyone coming out after work on Friday September 27th and having a beer with us!
