University of St. Thomas

Donor wall. Be inspired.

A storytelling installation honors one of the university's most dedicated donors – Guy Schoenecker – showcasing his contributions and inspiring continued investment in STEAM education.

Challenge

At the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota, the Schoenecker Center is the university's state of the art home for STEAM education. As part of its design, collaborators wanted to feature a donor wall highlighting the contributions of a family with a deep university legacy whose impact reverberates across the campus.

Solution

The Guy Schoenecker donor recognition display features a lighted exhibit that connects stories from Guy’s life to the vision for Schoenecker Center and celebrates the generosity of donors who made the $110 million facility possible.
