Print Week 2025: Conclusion in Michigan
We are excited to host the Graphic Media Alliance Michigan Print Week Event at the Atheneum Suite Hotel, a venue rich in Detroit’s industrial history. Originally constructed in the 1920s as part of the Ferry Seed Company’s expansion, this historic building played a vital role in Detroit’s brief but significant reign as the world capital of seed production. The Atheneum Suite Hotel seamlessly blends historic architectural elements with modern luxury, featuring structural concrete columns transformed into striking decorative features throughout the space. Located in the heart of Greektown, this unique venue offers an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere for networking and celebration. Join us at this landmark setting as we honor Michigan’s print industry in a space that embodies both history and innovation.
