Join us as we celebrate Shenandoah University’s 150 years of bold impact – and the vision that will shape the next 150.
This black-tie event features a cocktail reception, fine dining, special performances, and reflections on the university’s legacy of excellence and transformation. Our journey began in 1875, in the charming town of Dayton, Virginia, and continued in 1960, with a bold move to Winchester, Virginia, where, along with our Loudoun location, we thrive today through our long-held commitment to innovation and student success.
We look forward to celebrating this special sesquicentennial with you!
