Arrive at the Ave Maria Fine Art Gallery. It is the largest art gallery in Michigan and specializes in early 20th century and Old World art. The afternoon light is softening, making it a calm time to browse the collection before the evening rush.

Walk to Bromley Park, located just to the west-southwest of the gallery. This short stroll takes you away from the main road and into a quieter space. The park offers a clear view of the western sky as the day winds down.

Stay at Bromley Park for the sunset. The sun sets toward the WSW, providing a perfect backdrop for the final minutes of daylight. Enjoy the quiet atmosphere as the light fades.
