If These Walls Could Talk

In one of the first public special events to celebrate Virginia Tech's sesquicentennial, the Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology partnered with the Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets to tell the 150-year story of the university through the history of its cadets and the "voice" of one of its oldest buildings, Lane Hall. For three nights in September 2021, bright and colorful imagery played across the building's 200-foot by 40-foot brick facade, originally known as Barracks No. 1 on Upper Quad, coinciding with the VTCC's Corps Reunion.
