About Kalamazoo, Michigan

Kalamazoo is a city in Kalamazoo County, Michigan, United States, and its county seat. Kalamazoo was originally known as Bronson, after Titus Bronson, its founder, who settled here in 1829. In 1836, it was renamed Kalamazoo after the river running by it (a name that had already been adopted by the county in 1830). On the first Friday of each month, the council organizes the 'Art Hop'.
