Celebrating All Cultures and Identities 365 days a year
Identity365 is a year-long celebration of the vibrant experiences, backgrounds, and cultures that shape Northwest. Identity encompasses the many facets of who we are—such as culture, ethnicity, nationality, abilities, faith, geographic roots, interests, and life experiences. Through collaborations with student organizations, faculty, and staff, Identity365 offers opportunities to explore and honor these varied identities, fostering greater understanding, community, and connection. All Identity365 programs are open to the entire Northwest community and the public, providing meaningful ways to learn about people, perspectives, and stories year-round.

Telling the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton, this revolutionary moment in theater is America's story then, told by America now. Panel discussion following the movie.
