Event Description
This is the first in a series of Community Connection events for students, faculty, and staff. Community Connections are opportunities to connect and have fun in spite of this crazy pandemic!
You're invited to participate in a chalk art contest in the West Lot. Join the fun in one or both of these ways:
- Form a team and create a gratitude-themed chalk design in an assigned parking spot.
- View the finished designs, vote on your favorite, and enjoy apple cider and warm donut holes.
Whether you want to participate as a viewer or as a chalker and viewer, please register!
Schedule
7:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. | Chalk teams create their artwork anytime during this time block.
1:30-3:30 p.m. | Open house: Viewers stop by during 30-minute windows.
