Detroit Institute of Arts
The Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), originally named the Detroit Museum of Art, has one of the largest, most significant art collections in the United States. Its first painting was donated in 1883 and its collection consists of over 65,000 works. The DIA is a generalist museum, not a specialist one; its collections range from ancient Middle Eastern works to modern art. The DIA is located in Detroit's Cultural Center, about two miles (3 km) north of the downtown area.
