Location

Galaxy takes place in three gorgeously restored historic buildings, the Michigan Theater, the art deco Rackham Auditorium, and the School for Environment and Sustainability. All are located on the University of Michigan Central Campus in Downtown Ann Arbor.

All are also within walking distance of the open-air Ann Arbor Summer Festival, which closes Washington Street—for pedestrian flow between environmental and cultural events.

Transportation

We suggest flying into Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW). The University of Michigan is located 24.4 miles from the DTW airport. From there, you can take a taxi, uber, or lyft. You can also take the Michigan Flyer, which is $12 one way/$22 round-trip. The Michigan Flyer will pick you up at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport and drop you off at the Blake Transit Center in downtown Ann Arbor, where taxis and buses are available.
