Each summer, something powerful takes root in the heart of downtown Detroit and this year, we’re proud to celebrate the connections that continue to move our city forward.

We’re excited to invite you to Sip & Taste, The Greening of Detroit’s signature annual fundraiser, taking place on Friday, August 21, 2026, from 7–10 p.m. at our award-winning Lafayette Greens garden.

This year’s theme, “A Night Rooted in Detroit,” honors the people, partnerships, and progress that define our city. Guests will enjoy live music, a curated silent auction, and exceptional cuisine from some of Detroit’s top restaurants, paired with craft cocktails, local wines, and brews—all set within a vibrant urban garden in the heart of downtown.

This is truly an event you don’t want to miss
