Belle Isle Conservancy
Nature. People. Places.

Welcome to the new
Belle Isle Conservancy!

Formed in the fall of 2011, through a merger of four existing nonprofits - Friends of Belle Isle, Belle Isle Botanical Society, Belle Isle Women's Committee and Friends of the Belle Isle Aquarium — the new Conservancy, in partnership with the City of Detroit, will bring more private and public resources to our beautiful island park.


Belle Isle Aquarium

Belle Isle Aquarium is open every Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Free admission and parking.

Dossin Great Lakes Museum Renovation

The Dossin Museum will re-open in the spring with a new exhibition, Built by the River, highlighting the ways in which Detroiters have relied upon the river and lakes around us to build our industries, engage our neighbors and pursue our recreational interests.
Upcoming Events
June 15, 2013 from 9am to noon. Help eradicate the invasive plants on Belle Isle. Read More
