The Detroit Institute of Arts goes back in time Saturday to celebrate the golden age of cinema.
The museum is sponsoring a 1920’s-themed gala in conjunction with the Detroit Free Press Film Festival.
The event’s executive producer, Aaron Velthoven, tells WDET’s Quinn Klinefelter it’s a celebration based on the glitz and glamour showcased in novels like “The Great Gatsby.”
