Description:
The Military Women’s Memorial, in partnership with the Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets, hosts an Opening Event for a special traveling exhibition The Color of Freedom: Honoring the Diversity of America’s Servicewomen to Virginia Tech’s Newman Library on Thursday, February 10, 2022.

Special guests will give remarks, and the exhibition will formally open to the public. "The Color of Freedom" offers a unique opportunity to celebrate Black History Month and the 100th anniversary of women students at Virginia Tech.

Visitors will be able to immerse themselves in the contributions of military women of color who have served throughout American history. The exhibition's goal is to build awareness of the sacrifices of women from diverse backgrounds who forged a path for women of all backgrounds to serve in and with the U.S. military.

The exhibit will be on display February 10-28 on the library’s fourth floor, across from the Corps of Cadets Museum space. The library is open 24 hours a day.
