Congratulations to our GA, Daniela! She just graduated with her Master's in Creative Writing and will be starting a professor of literature position back in her hometown. She is currently working on an amazing novel that we will have in the Women's Center one day 😉 as well as very moving poetry and countless other thoughtful pieces. We know we will be seeing big things from her!

Thanks to everyone that came and shared your talents this year! We love this event so much. This year we had singers, pianists, saxophonists, poets, authors, videographers, cooks, and visual artists. Thanks to each one of you, you were all amazing!

There are so many talented people that we are surrounded by each day on campus and don't even know it, so we love to make a space where people can let loose, express themselves, and share their passion.

Get ready for next year. Hope to see you there!!

If you have not had a chance to take a look at the AIDS memorial quilt panel that is displayed in Miller Nicole's lobby, we encourage you to go see it before it leaves on Thursday.

This single panel is one of 50,000 - the largest community art project ever. It honors some of the people lost in Kansas City and if you were to attach the rest of the panels of the quilt, the entire project would reach from Whole Foods to Troost and span two blocks wide.
