The Lansing area is about to become even more welcoming with the opening of a second location for
The Greater Lansing Convention and Visitors Bureau (GLCVB) in East Lansing. The new 400 square foot visitor information center celebrates its grand opening with a ribbon cutting this week.
“The addition of a second visitor center location is something that has been on our radar for a few years,” says VP Marketing Communications for the GLCVB, Tracy Padot. “We spent a lot of time finding the right location, to position ourselves for maximum success. The space needed to be affordable, visible to the traveling public and adjacent to shopping, dining, attractions and events. When the space opened up across from the Broad, we knew we had found the right fit.”
The new
Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum is, in fact, a primary reason for the second GLCVB location. The museum is expected to create a great influx of visitors. Additionally, an East Lansing location hopes to service Michigan State University’s growing population of international students and their families.
The location will be staffed Tuesday through Sunday and will showcase special events and projects, as well as guide visitors to destinations throughout the Greater Lansing area.
