Defending Democracy is the timely theme for the League of Women Voters of Michigan’s 2021 Biennial Convention. Although this year’s convention will be virtual, it will include all the features you are used to seeing at an in-person convention: plenaries, workshops, awards, panel discussions…even a silent auction. We will miss seeing you in person, but we know this is the best way to protect the safety of our members.
Though the platforms will be a little different for the two categories of registrants, they will provide full access to the plenary sessions, workshops, and panel discussions. It is important to note any League member can attend the convention. We hope you can join us as we conduct the business of the League and have some learning opportunities along the way.
The registration fee is $75 for a voting delegate and $35 for any non-voting member.

LWVMI Convention: Silent Auction
LWVMMI has had great success this past year, but our mission to empower voters and defend democracy continues. Please consider a donation to help fund these ongoing efforts to Make Democracy Work.
Part of the donation effort has been through an auction at our in-person state convention. The 2021 LWVMI convention will offer a silent auction, and we are looking for items to auction off. We already have a bottle of the “Vote” wine and a South Haven Escape experience. Please consider supporting LWVMI through the Silent Auction that will be offered on the state convention website. Bidding begins at 8:30 p.m. on May 21, and ends at 2:00 p.m. on May 22. Bidding will be by email, so watch for special instructions.
All items will be featured on the convention website. See the current list. Auction items highlights include the “South Haven Escape “ vacation, the last bottle of VOTE wine.
If you have an item to add to the auction, call Ken Manley at 269 330 8579. The end date for adding items to the auction is May 15.
