Celebrate 15 Years of the Archer Center
2016 marks the 15th anniversary of the Archer Center and Congressman Bill Archer's legacy of inspiring young Texans to pursue lives of public service. To honor this milestone, the Center is hosting a series of events in Washington, D.C., and Texas beginning in April. These events will celebrate the past 15 years of leaders shaped at the Archer Center and raise funds to support the next 15 years of Archer Fellows. Below is a list of currently scheduled events and sponsorship opportunities.
