Raised for the foundation’s work with veterans
Overview
The PenFed Foundation supports service members, veterans, and their families. For its 2026 Celebration of Service Gala, we designed the main artwork, print templates, table menus, and presentation slides, working as a subcontractor to C. Liston Communications.
The artwork
The event name is set in script against a night sky, with jets, helicopters, tanks, and soldiers in silhouette along the bottom. The gala was held at the Smithsonian’s Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, an air and space museum in Chantilly, Virginia.
On the night
The same artwork ran on the table menus, the printed pieces, and the screens in the hall. The gala raised more than $1.3 million for the foundation’s work with veterans.
