Last week, Ambassador Schneebauer joined EU Ambassador Jovita Neliupšienė and fellow EU Member State Ambassadors at the Library of Congress for a special reception marking the handover of the EU Ambassadors Book Collection to the American public. A sincere thank you to Representative Nathaniel Moran for hosting this meaningful event.

To commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States, all 27 EU Member States donated an English-language book reflecting their national history, culture, and values to the Library of Congress. Austria contributed The Marshall Plan – Since 1947: Saving Europe, Rebuilding Austria, ever grateful for the vital role in Austria’s post-war recovery and reconstruction.

The collection celebrates the enduring bonds between Europe and the United States and invites American readers to explore the stories, experiences, and values that unite us. 📚🤝🇺🇸.

We were delighted to once again visit our Embassy Adoption Program partner school, Hardy Middle School, and spend time with the students and their wonderful teacher, Chiara.

A special thank you to Austrian actor Saskia Norman and Austrian director Elisabeth Halikiopoulos for leading a lively improv workshop that had everyone laughing by the end of the session. The students enthusiastically embraced improv, showing just how much learning can happen through creativity and play.

We always enjoy visiting the 6th graders at Hardy Middle School and look forward hosting them for their Capstone Presentation at the Embassy in June!
