Victory Cruise Lines is announcing a new educational and marketing partnership with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation for the 2025 season.
Through the collaboration, guests will get to enjoy an educational series aboard Victory I and Victory II, in addition to shore excursions in Chicago, Detroit, and Muskegon (Grand Rapids).
“Frank Lloyd Wright left a beautiful legacy of architectural marvels across the Great Lakes including two sites on the UNESCO World Heritage List and our guests will appreciate exploring his vision through his designs and learning so much along the way,” says John Waggoner, chairman and founder of Victory Cruise Lines. “We know learning is a priority of Victory Cruise Lines guests and this partnership with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation offers opportunities to participate in onboard enrichment programs created and presented by Taliesin Institute.”
For example, in Chicago, travelers can first visit Frank Lloyd Wright’s designed Unity Temple, as well as the Frank Lloyd Wright Home & Studio, The Robie House and Rookery Building.
In Detroit, they can visit The Smith House, which is operated by Cranbrook Center for Collections and Research. And in Muskegon, travelers can explore The Meyer May House in Grand Rapids, as well as the private Amberg House.
“We are proud to partner with Victory Cruise Lines to launch the Frank Lloyd Wright x Victory Cruise Line excursions. Led by the Foundation’s Taliesin Institute, the scholar-led journeys offer guests a rare chance to explore Wright’s visionary architecture through the lens of a living legacy,” says Emily Butler, associate vice president of partnerships and strategic initiatives, Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. “Our goal at the foundation is to help inspire more intentional, connected, and thoughtful ways of living today, and what better way than working with the Victory Cruise Line team to connect our guests to Wright's legacy of intentional design?"
