Mary Lou Fulton, educator and philanthropist, passed away on Thursday, Oct. 1. She and her husband, Ira, were extremely generous donors to BYU and to TMA in particular. In 2004, the Fultons established the five million dollar Mary Lou Fulton Chair in Theatre and Media Arts. The chair has funded hundreds of student projects and scholarships, provided support for outside artists and guests, and supported faculty in numerous ways.
As a gesture of love and appreciation, and in recognition of Mary Lou's love of birds, TMA would like to invite students, alumni, faculty, and staff members who have been touched by the Fulton's generosity to write short notes to them on origami paper. The TMA front desk secretaries will fold the papers into cranes. TMA will be providing origami paper at the TMA front desk.
The papers will be available onMonday, Oct. 5, in D-581 HFAC. TMA invites everyone and anyone who would like to send positive messages to the Fultons to participate.
