Under the Southwestern Stars – Annual Scholarship Gala

September 22, 2025 | Sundance Square, Fort Worth, TX

Saddle up for an unforgettable evening of celebration and purpose at Southwestern Adventist University’s Annual Scholarship Gala—Under the Southwestern Stars. Set against the charming backdrop of Sundance Square in Fort Worth, this year's gala blends the spirit of the Southwest with a heartfelt mission: supporting the dreams and futures of our students.

This year, we’re also proud to celebrate a major milestone—the 50th anniversary of our Nursing Program—honoring five decades of excellence in faith-based healthcare education.

Enjoy a night filled with Texas flair—live music, delicious eats, and warm company—all under the glow of the city lights and big Texas sky. From boots to ballgowns, this is your chance to make a real difference while soaking in the charm of the Lone Star State.

Every contribution and every moment shared helps provide life-changing scholarships for students pursuing their calling at Southwestern Adventist University.

We can’t wait to welcome you under the Southwestern stars.
