Experience Detroit
If you're attending TJS, join us for our annual
two days of pre-symposium fun!
We do something different every year.
A chance to see Detroit and build
friendships with TJS speakers and fellow attendees.
May 14 & 15 (Thurs & Fri) 2026
Business trips should include a little fun! And Detroit has a LOT to offer.
So, each year, TJS coordinates two days of leisure activities for speakers and attendees.
It's a great way to network in a relaxed atmosphere, get to know your peers,
and build memories.
In previous years we visited the Henry Ford Museum, toured the Ford Rouge F-150 Factory, toured the Edsel house and the Detroit Institute of Art, and spent a day at Greenfield Village.
This year, we'll have several activities* over two days:
Ford Piquette Plant Museum - a visit to
https://www.motownmuseum.org/about/
Detroit Princess Riverboat Dinner Cruise -
Ford Museum
Glass Academy
Fees = Details coming soon
Fee includes transportation and entrance/tours of each destination.
Meals not included.
If you would like to join the fun, tickets will be available when Symposium registration opens in November.
Note: plan to arrive in Detroit on May 13, and book your hotel room accordingly.
*planned destinations are subject to change. If a venue becomes unavailable,
we will substitute it with something equally engaging and update this page.
