Coming to Ann Arbor?
Some of our Dames own or lead businesses, such
as a restaurant, bakery, supermarket, or catering service,
that the public interacts with directly; please support
them! A few of them are featured below.
Other
Dames are authors, professors, nutritionists,
institutional caterers, green farmers, and so forth, and
their creative works are noted elsewhere on this
website. We hope you support all of them.
