This season, Detroit’s Largest Art Object is Detroit’s most attractive destination for holiday shopping and holiday fun!

“The holidays are a great time to experience the historic Fisher Building,” said Clarke Lewis, president of The Platform. “There is a reason it’s one of the city’s top tourist attractions and is known as Detroit’s Largest Art Object. By combining the holiday market, theatre performances and tours, the Fisher offers something for everyone and a memorable holiday experience.”
