Detroit has been an entry point for immigrants from around the world and many receive services through this unique agency in the Cultural Center. Besides offering language and other classes, International Institute of Metropolitan Detroit serves an inexpensive daily lunch and offers ethnic enrichment experiences for groups, including songs, dances, stories and exhibits. The highlight of the center is the international doll exhibit featuring more than 2000 authentic dolls from many cultures worldwide. It also sponsors an annual International Festival, which showcases art, handicrafts and cuisines from different parts of the world.
