AIA Michigan Design Retreat [Updated]

AIA Michigan Design RetreatHas anybody seen their invitation to the 19th Annual Design Retreat?  I finally got my invitation!

Typically, current year honor award winners are asked to present at the retreat.  If you've forgotten who received awards this year take a look at our recap.  Two days of presentations are followed by a guest lecturer talking about Michigan relevant architecture on Saturday evening.  Anybody have information about this years presenter?  A list of presenters was also included with the invitation.  Read on to learn which projects will be presented this year.
