(WJBK) - The Detroit Zoological Society's annual fundraising gala, Sunset at the Zoo is set for Friday, June 16. This year's theme is "Green is the New Black", celebrating the zoo's award-winning Greenprint initiatives.
Sunset features a champagne welcome, a strolling supper with tastes of signature dishes from more than 45 of the area's finest restaurants, as well as desserts and zoo-themed specialty drinks. Attendees also get to look at the animal habitats at twilight.
Tickets are $175 per person and proceeds benefit the Detroit Zoological Society. You can get more information or tickets online at www.detroitzoo.org.
