The Welcome Gallery is welcoming people back

The Richmond Family Welcome Gallery, housed in the Alice Campbell Alumni Center, is inviting the public back after being closed due to COVID. Homecoming week is coming up next week, and it’s the perfect opportunity to soak in a little Illini nostalgia. 

The exhibit, which opened in 2018, is a glimpse into the history of the University, and is certainly a walk down memory lane for U of I alumni. There’s even an opportunity for you to tell your U of I story, and have it added to the exhibit. 

The Alumni Center, located at 601 S. Lincoln, is open Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday 9 a.m. to noon.
