We are honored this evening to have Rodney Patrick, President of the City Council of Highland Park, as our speaker.

In conjunction with Schoolcraft Community Council, he has taught classes on Historic Home Architecture and provided tours of notable homes in Detroit and Highland Park.  Tonight, his topic is the Architecture of Craftman Homes. He will discuss homes designed by Leonard Willeke, Albert Kahn and other architects that worked in both in Highland Park and Indian Village.
