UPCOMING: World Steam Expo, 28-31 May



We've known and been excited about this for months. Being the home of Greenfield Village and the Henry Ford puts Dearborn in the perfect place to host this sort of event. If you don't know steampunk, give a look -- it's some of the most creative, hands-on fun stuff going right now.
