Wayside Exhibit Program
MotorCities is the proud recipient of a grant from the Federal Highway Administration, Department of Transportation through the Michigan Department of Transportation and the Michigan Department of History, Arts and Libraries. The grant is for the creation of a Wayside Exhibit program in the MotorCities region.
Over the course of the grant, the Wayside Exhibit program will create a comprehensive system of approximately 300 outdoor signs in communities throughout central and southeastern Michigan. Each sign will commemorate Michigan's automotive heritage and will increase public awareness of this on a community and regional level.
To date, more than 120 exhibits have been installed across the region including Flint, Ypsilanti, Lansing, Middle Rouge, Macomb County, Flint, with more coming soon.If you have an idea for panels in your community and would be interested in being involved in upcoming cycles, contact Brian Yopp at (313) 259-3425 x307,
