See Elmwood in a new light! Join us for a twilight stroll of the cemetery in July. We'll visit the cemetery's historical highlights and wrap up at the gatehouse as the sun sets and the Buck Moon rises. Sign up here for the twilight walk on Sunday, July 27 from 7 to about 9 p.m.
July 27 - Elmwood Walks: Twilight Tour
Or perhaps, you would like to enjoy Elmwood on your own or with a group of friends. Each year, we are visited by those who choose to picnic alongside our restored pond, run or bicycle on our roads, watch for the migration of birds in Michigan, photograph our unique memorials, walk along our beautiful grounds appreciating our outdoor sculpture garden, the perennials, and majestic trees, or simply contemplate this quiet setting in the heart of Detroit.
