Mashed Potatoes Expo




In March 2011 Popps Packing and The Lot were proud to present Mashed Potatoes: An expo. Displayed expo style in the the Popps Packing gallery, this free event highlighted more than 30 inovative, grass roots, cultural organizations happening now in Detroit.


There were name tags, mashed potatoes, homemade sausage, locally roasted coffee, a raffle and much more. Hundreds of people came out to learn about the amazing things happening in their backyards and to meet each othere face to face.


Thanks to everyone who participated and contributed to the event!

Special thanks to Motor City Brewing Works and Slows BBQ for donating spirits and sustenance and to Steve Cherry of Hamtramck Radio for providing the amazing jams all night.
