IABFLO 2026 International Annual Conference - Associate Members

Hello, Associate Members!

Registration is now open!

We are excited to host you at The Atheneum in Detroit, Michigan on April 29-30, 2026!  

The conference agenda for Associates members can be accessed here. We certainly hope you can join us for the 91st Annual IABFLO Conference.

As you prepare for the trip, we ask that you complete these two steps soon:

1. Register for your hotel room through our associate member using the link above, to ensure you are counted as part of our conference; and
2. Register for the conference at iabflo.org, to ensure we get a proper headcount for the events throughout the week including our field trip to the Train Station Tour and possibly the Detroit Riverfront.

Printcraft has once again offered to graciously host our dinner reception at Fishbones Greektown, which is connected to the hotel.

The hotel does NOT offer shuttle services to/from the airport and recommends the use of Uber. The hotel offers a discounted valet rate from $35.00 to $20.00 per night.

This year, IABFLO will be providing a welcome bag to all attendees at the conference. Should your organization wish to include a small item, you're more than welcome to do so. Please email IABFLO at info@iabflo.org to inform us of the item you wish to include. Be sure to provide it to us by Tuesday, April 28th, so we can include them in the bags for the first day on Wednesday, April 29th. 

If you have any additional questions, regarding the conference please reach out to myself Lisa Clark Jones @ jonesli@detroitmi.gov, Richard Selegue @ Richard.selegue@com.state.oh.us, or IABFLO @ info@iabflo.org. 

See you soon!
