On Thursday, July 28 the public is invited for a special opening ceremony and viewing of The Wall at 7 pm at the Multi-Lakes Conservation Association. There will also be a Ride of Honor on Sunday July 31.

Multi-Lakes Conservation Association is located at 3860 Newton Rd in Commerce Township, Michigan (in Oakland County just north of Novi). The venue is easy to get to from the highway while still offering a beautiful escape into nature.
