The future of Michigan’s 35th State Senate District is on the ballot — and on March 24, you have the opportunity to hear directly from the candidates.
Michigan Women is proud to partner with Saginaw Valley State University for the Great Lakes Bay Region Candidate Forum, and we’re inviting you to attend with us.
This is your chance to sit together, show up together, and stay informed together.
We have 14 VIP seats reserved in the lower level of the theatre for our Michigan Women community — available on a first-come, first-served basis.
You can also attend the general audience if our group seats fill up.
Either way, we hope you’ll join us.
