Detroit Synergy is powered by member-driven projects that promote discovery, dialogue, and development in the City of Detroit. The scope is intentionally broad because we believe a diverse spectrum of creative ideas can help build our community.

As a member-driven organization, Detroit Synergy supports projects initiated and led by individuals in collaboration with community partners. As more people come together and add their vision and voice to the collective whole, then the synergy of our combined efforts will enhance our city.

Any individual can submit a project proposal and recruit other members to form a project team. Then the team receives assistance and support from the group as a whole. In this way, Detroit Synergy maintains a grass-roots spirit that allows anyone to pursue their vision for a greater city with the support of a larger network.

Projects are the Heart of Detroit Synergy

They are the vehicle to connect you to all that is good in the Detroit community. Detroit Synergy projects have been organized into three distinct project groups, each focusing on a different goal.  Check the navigation box on the right for a list of our current projects.

dialogue projects...

bring Detroiters together to share ideas, information and experiences.

Do you have an idea to bring Detroiters together to share frank discussion about issues facing the city? Dialogue projects provide an open forum, small and large. From an informal book or movie club to a lecture series or public debate, as long as the topic is Detroit related, then Dialogue projects are for you.

discovery projects...

showcase the beauty and uniqueness of Detroit.

Do you crave Detroit experiences and discoveries? Do you enjoy finding a new cultural event, historic building, bar, restaurant, local business, musician, artist, park, or community service organization? Isn't it a fabulous feeling when you are inspired by something "new to you" in Detroit?

Check out our discovery projects. Participate in a project or propose one of your own. Discover beauty and unique experiences in Detroit and spread the word to increase awareness and participation in all Detroit has to offer.

development projects...

improve the city and its community physically and/or economically.

Do you desire to create the ultimate urban experience?  Do you see potential to build with the current resources and gems abundant in and around Detroit?  From planning a Detroit Synergy Build Charrette to attending a 2030 Urban Imperative Agenda Setting Session, the opportunities to get involved are numerous.

Come, engage and create projects that continue to build upon our sense of community and strive to promote positive economic development.
