The annual Autism Hero Walk hosts over 6000 attendees at the Detroit Zoo to come together in celebration of and to advocate for their loved ones affected by autism. The free event begins with an inspirational opening ceremony followed by a 1-mile walk and post-event activities, including an autism resource fair with over 50 vendors.

Steampunk Invasion of the Detroit Zoo 2018
The Steampunks will invade the Detroit Zoo again this October. Hopefully the weather will cooperate with lovely fall temperatures. So much better for our wonderful outfits. And the animals should be more active too. Feel free to join us on this adventure. As always, costumes admired, but not required.
We plan to meet-up at the Rackham Fountain near the front of the zoo at 1pm. Most likely photos will occur there (especially if someone good with a camera shows up).
Otherwise, people will probably just wander around looking at the various animals and exhibits, chancing upon each other, exchanging pleasantries, commenting on others fine zoo/safari/whatever ensembles.
