Celebrate spring with a tour at Cranbrook House, the oldest manor home in metro-Detroit and a National Historic Landmark. Formerly the estate of Cranbrook’s founders, George Gough Booth and Ellen Scripps Booth, the manor was designed in the Arts & Crafts Style by noted Detroit architect Albert Kahn in 1908.

On the tour, guests will view handcrafted furnishings, tapestries, and a selection of the Booth’s large collection of world class art. Following the tour, enjoy a box lunch and the sounds of the recently restored Steinway Piano during a lunchtime performance in Cranbrook House library.
