Downtown Clawson Social District

Buy a drink at a participating bar or restaurant, take it outside in a Social District cup, and walk the sidewalks along Main Street and 14 Mile Road. Window shop, or find a bench and people-watch. The district has been open since 2021. The "Social District Ends Here" signs on the light poles mark the edge, and no open alcohol is allowed past them.
