Veyo Works From Home – Episode 9

May 29, 2020

Can you believe June is right around the corner? Things are starting to reopen (yay!) as we wrap up this 11th week of working from home. And while the list of things to do this weekend is a bit shorter, there is still a bunch of fun stuff happening, so we’ll keep sharing a few of our favorites. Happy graduation to all of the graduates out there and we hope you have a great weekend!

A few big things this weekend:

  • Don’t forget that the The SpaceX Crewed launch was rescheduled for tomorrow, May 30th! Check it out Saturday at 3:22pm EDT.
  • Join the Smithsonian’s Pride Alliance to kick off Pride month with Project Pride, a virtual concert and digital time capsule celebration of LGBTQ+ Heritage, Culture, and History featuring LGBTQ+ musicians, artists, and allies, as well as highlights from the Smithsonian collections.
  • The graduation festivities continue with YouTube’s Dear Class of 2020 on June 6th on YouTube. Hosted by President Obama and MIchelle Obama, commencement speakers will include Malala Yousafzai, former Defense Secretary Bob Gates, and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.  The live stream also features commencement speeches from Lady Gaga and BTS, as well as appearances by Alicia Keys, Zendaya, Kerry Washington, and more celebrating the graduates whose ceremonies are canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
