Let me start with a big ‘Thank You!’ for your support of the bylaw changes discussed over the last few months. Passed by over 90% of the voting membership, these changes make AIA Michigan nimbler and more accessible across the State.  Please keep an eye out for our 2023 AIA Michigan calendar of events so you can join us for programs and meetings throughout the year.

Regarding programs, you might have noticed that we shifted our K-12 Educational Facilities Conference to 2023.

Registration ramped up as the date approached and we had great, intriguing programs planned. However, to share the information with as many people as possible we shifted the program away from conflicting year-end commitments and competing seminars. Our sincere thanks and apologies to those who registered and those who were on the docket to lead the discussions. We are pleased that so many of you offered to join us in 2023. We will get the new date out to you soon.
