"The GCA has chosen Detroit for the location of its annual Workshop & Retreat in 2020," says GCA President, George White. "Our industry is at a pivotal moment; with three consecutive years of increases in the number of greeting cards mailed through the US Postal Service and dramatic increases in usage by millennials, we are winning relevance in a shifting retail landscape. We are excited to use Detroit not only for our annual business meeting, but as our classroom to celebrate creativity, resilience, inventiveness, and the unique power of connectivity that greeting cards possess."
The four day event will be held at the Westin Book Cadillac Hotel and is open to greeting card publishers, sales representatives and retailers. The event starts on September 30th with a reception sponsored by Avanti Press, located in downtown Detroit. Two days of programming on October 1st and 2nd will feature thought leaders and entrepreneurs, plus owners and creators with card publishers from across the country. The annual GCA open board meeting will be held on Saturday, October 3rd.
