EWU Custom School Donor Wall
This unique School Donor Wall was created to thank donors and recognize scholarship recipients. The Eastern Washington University Library received a sizable donation from the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, dating back to the 1960s graduates, partly to fund the annual Randy Van Turner scholarship. Randy Van Turner was an EWU graduate and founding member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity at EWU; he was killed in action in Vietnam. The scholarship in his name has been awarded annually since 2014.
The school donor wall is placed at the entry of Eastern Washington University’s library, and is made up of several pieces. The layered dimensional effect is achieved with multiple materials, from acrylic to brushed metal, working in great combination.
School Donor Wall Elements
For this project, the blue waves and top trapezoidal piece are acrylic, the black bars are PVC, the dimensional lettering is brushed silver, and the logo is high performance adhesive vinyl. The plaque on the left is engraved with the scholarship contributors, and the plaque on the right is a Vista anodized aluminum frame that offers the ability for the university to change the graphics with names of new recipients.
“The wall art is multi-dimensional and layered for an exceptional effect,” Signs for Success’ Julie Dean said. “From the initial contact, several general concepts and materials were considered. In the end, Signs for Success design department vectored, made design adjustment, and set up a concept created by Carol King of the EWU Library.”
To have all these elements designed, printed, ordered and installed – concept to installation – was just shy of four weeks. Even with the various design aspects and vendors involved we were able to complete the project within a month.
