Stronger Together: Honoring Student Veterans
Tuesday, May 16, 1-2 p.m.
You are cordially invited to join student veterans and their supporters, including Rotary Club and Foothill-De Anza Foundation leaders, for a special event celebrating the creation of the new mural, “Stronger Together.”
Please join us on the patio behind the Media & Learning Center (MLC) for a brief program beginning at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, May 16. Free parking is available in the Flint Garage.
- The program will include brief remarks from college leaders including Veterans Resource Center staff, student veterans and artists, and other supporters of the project.
- We’ll then take a short walk to the Seminar Building for the formal unveiling of the new mural and a plaque acknowledging the Rotary Club of Cupertino and the Foothill-De Anza Foundation for their generous support of this project.
- Afterward, you are welcome to enjoy light refreshments and tour the center, which provides academic counseling and services for student veterans, as well as book vouchers, coffee, snacks and other amenities made possible by the support of Rotary Club donors. You can also watch a short video about the mural.
“Stronger Together” honors the hundreds of military veterans, active-duty personnel, reservists and military dependents who attend De Anza each year. It was designed and painted by De Anza Visual Arts students and faculty in consultation with student veterans.
