Attend
Attend one of our college-hosted opportunities to expand your network and learn more about our innovative programs and research. Our university also provides opportunities for all Hokies and friends to attend broader events and reunions, and you're never too far from another Hokie when you connect to your local chapter.
Come home to Blacksburg for a fun weekend where you can experience the theatre program of today and reminisce with fellow alumni about your time on campus as a student.
Weekend highlights include all the following events, as well as plenty of time to explore campus and Blacksburg:

- Attend the student production of “POTUS” and post-show talkback with the cast.
- Enjoy dinner at Eastern Divide Brewery.
- Share a farewell brunch with the school director and program chair.
Portions of the weekend events are sponsored by the School of Performing Arts, which now resides in the College of Architecture, Arts, and Design. The registration fee is $55/per person, of which $5 is a non-refundable gift to the Theatre Annual Fund. The registration fee covers the theatre tickets, dinner and drinks at Eastern Divide, and farewell brunch.
All Virginia Tech Landscape Architecture alumni and friends are invited to join students, faculty, and Dean Lu Liu for a reception at the VT Washington Alexandria Architecture Center (WAAC).
