The Gem Theatre in Detroit houses a two level theatre with traditional row and aisle seating and intimate stage-level seating at cabaret tables. It shares a lobby with the cabaret style Century Theatre . The theatre has stylings of Spanish Revival architecture. The structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.HistoryIn 1902, the Twentieth Century Club, a group of cultural, socially prominent women, built a Mission-style building to house their club. The building, now the Century Theatre, is built of red brick trimmed with white sandstone. The first floor originally housed a dining room, while the second floor housed a 400-seat auditorium.In 1928, the member of the Century club contracted George D. Mason to design a theater addition to the Century Club building. The resulting Spanish Revival-style building was leased to the Little Theatre chain, which showed foreign films, and the building was known as the Little Theatre.In 1933, due to the Depression, the Twentieth Century Club disbanded. The Little Theatre, however, continued, suffering through several name changes, becoming The Rivoli in 1932, Drury Lane (and then the Europa in 1935, the Cinema in 1936, and the Vanguard Playhouse in 1960. The Vanguard offered live theater rather than movies.Finally, in 1967, the theatre was named the Gem. The building was used as an adult movie house until it closed in 1978. Soon afterward, developer Charles Forbes purchased the combined Gem/Century building, and began a complete restoration of the Gem Theatre in 1990. The refurbished Gem opened in 1991.

Hundreds of thousands of Michiganders will be focused on the radiant Motor City New Year's Eve D as it makes its descent starting at 11:59 p.m. December 31 in Detroit’s Cadillac Square. Voices will unite to count down the final seconds of the year and celebrate a new beginning full of hope, dreams and new aspirations. Now in its fifth year, the annual Motor City New Year’s Eve (NYE) event – The Drop – will be hosted from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. in Campus Martius, with an expanded footprint encompassing Cadillac Square. The free community event is loaded with fun outdoor activities for children and adults. At the heart of the event will be a unique Detroit-themed ball drop. Handmade in Detroit by the Nordin Brothers, this glittering starburst sculpture, emblazoned with a D, will descend twice during the event – once for a Kids’ Drop at 6:30 p.m., and again for the official drop at 11:59 p.m. The breathtaking spectacle, visible from various venues throughout Detroit, will reach a much broader audience this year. WTVS PBS Detroit will broadcast the Motor City NYE countdown live (please check local listings). Guests can enjoy a plethora of activities starting at 4 p.m. Bundle up and delight in live music, warm food, cold refreshments and cocktails (21+) prepared by local food trucks and restaurants. Ice skate in Campus Martius or gather around wood-burning warming stations positioned throughout the event. Feeling romantic? Carriage rides will be available for scenic tours of the City for a fee. Motor City NYE will present an inclusive Kids Zone featuring family friendly acts from 4-7 p.m. Cirque Amongus, comedian and illusionist Mark Maze, and Crossroads, a family band that performs music appealing to all ages will engage and entertain. Gracie the Clown and King Arthur the clown will provide face painting and balloon animal making. The family fun concludes just after the Kids’ Drop at 6:30 p.m. Multi-media Host and Entertainer Ashley Elyse will emcee Motor City NYE from the main stage. The adult fun begins when Party band Cast Iron Cornbread takes the stage at 7:00 p.m. and again at 8:15 p.m. DJ Tom, Detroit dance scene legend, will keep the crowd jumping with performances throughout the evening. Detroit songstresses Angela Davis and Tosha Owens will appear both on the main stage and second stage – lighting up the evening with soulful sounds and R&B classics. Don’t miss Ayla Stackhouse, who has appeared on Broadway and American Idol, when she performs “Light Up Detroit,” an original song that officially kicks off the much anticipated countdown to midnight. New this year, take shelter inside a massive heated tent raised in the Center of Cadillac Square. A second stage here will feature DJ Escalade, singers Mark Reitenga, Davis, Owens, and Top 40 band Priceless Live who will keep the party hopping all night.

I'm a lifelong native of Metro Detroit...and an artist. I like putting designs on stuff. Whatever you are into, I can draw it. I especially like to slap cool graphics up on skate decks. My decks are all real Canadian maple, and are perfect for display, or to ride. I also do portraits, phone cases, etc. Basically anything. The coolest part about what I do is that nothing I make is available anywhere else. Everything is a one-of-a-kind item. Take a look at my stuff and send a message or post on the page if you want some more info. Oh, and thanks for looking.
