Kwame M. Kilpatrick, Mayor of Detroit (2008)
Dear Friends:
On behalf of the city of Detroit, it gives me great pleasure to welcome all in attendance at the Oriental Culture Association (OCA) of Michigan’s “Chinese New Year Spectacular” at the Detroit Opera House, to our great city.
The “Chinese New Year Spectacular” has made a tremendous impact on our city by contributing to the culture diversity that Detroit has always been known for.
During your stay please take time to experience Detroit and enjoy the unique attractions our city offers. Detroit is home to the largest museum of African American history, the Detroit Institute of Arts, Motown Historical Museum, the New Detroit Science Center and numerous other cultural attractions. Our downtown civic center offers exciting nightlife, outdoor entertainment and Las Vegas style casinos.
Once again, I welcome all in attendance at this tremendous event and thank you for choosing Detroit as your host city. Congratulations on another extravaganza for the Chinese New Year and please accept my best wishes for a successful and joyful evening!
Sincerely,
Kwame M. Kilpatrick
Mayor
