Tinkham Veale University Center nominated for national award

The Tinkham Veale University Center has been named a finalist for the 2025 Unique Venues Planner’s Choice Award in the category of Inclusive Meetings & Events.

TVUC joins three other venues across the country—including American University in Washington, D.C., and the University of California, Santa Cruz—in being recognized for their outstanding efforts in inclusive event planning and hospitality.

Each year, Unique Venues opens voting to thousands of professional planners across the U.S. and Canada to determine which venues stand out for their uniqueness, innovation, and impact. Winners will be announced later this year and featured among the top 2025 Planner’s Choice venues.

This nomination reflects the ongoing work of the TVUC team to ensure that every event held in our facility upholds our university’s core values of equity, community, and belonging.
