On 2 June 2026, from 16:00 to 17:30 (CET), the Former Members Association will officially launch the celebrations marking its 25th anniversary.
President of the FMA and former President of the European Parliament, Klaus Hänsch, will deliver a welcome address and statement to mark 25 years of the Association at the Yehudi Menuhin Space. Following there will be a choral interlude performed by the European Parliament Choir. Then at the Yehudi Menuhin Mezzanine, the FMA will unveil its anniversary exhibition, showcasing the milestone achievement of the Association. It serves as a retrospective of the FMA’s mission, as it retraces the Association’s key initiatives and programmes.
The exhibition is a product of the creative vision of Vice-President Arch. Monica Baldi with the collaboration of the FMA Secretariat: Elisabetta Fonck, Albertina Ferreira Magalhaes, Estela Alvarez Jordan, and Camille Horemans. In addition, the FMA would like to thank the European Parliament for their support and for making the creation of this exhibition possible. Through the use of archival photography and personal testimonials, the exhibition celebrates the transition from active office to continued public service.
It will take place at the Yehudi Menuhin Space/Mezzanine, European Parliament, Brussels. In addition, simultaneous interpretation will be available in English and French.
The exhibition will be open for viewing on Monday, June 1 and will be on display until Friday, June 5.
