Diverse(SOUP)City
Diverse(SOUP)City is a new public event inspired by Detroit Soup and Soup at Spaulding. I am pleased to host this public event, along with my friends and fellow community members. Pay $7, eat soup, learn about creative projects happening in Hamtramck and vote on which project to fund with the money raised from admissions that evening. Through these events we are funding micro-grants for community based projects in the City of Hamtramck. It’s that simple…
On March 20, 2011 The Discovery Channel filmed this event to create a documentary showcasing the renaissance of Detroit titled Detroit In Overdrive. This documentary highlights residents of the city that are part of the redevelopment of Detroit and surrounding cities. The Discovery Channel took an interest in Diverse(SOUP)City and spent many hours with me, as well as the organizers of this beautiful community event to create the documentary. It aired on Discovery Channel’s Planet Green on August 4th, 2011. Be sure to capture this documentary!
Here is a peak of the action filmed by Philip Lauri of Detroit LIVES:
