RAW (Review of Arts & Writing) Journal

01/10/2022

Hey guys!

You'll be pleased to hear that Eleanor Green Office has agreed to collaborate with us for the Trash to Treasure event on Sunday 9th of October at 14:00.

The event consists in going on a hunt for trash in Middelburg to find anything that you could use for your works of art.
After the hunt, we will provide some glue so you can turn your trash into a Treasure.

In the next few days, we will be posting some inspiration/ideas for your own art-works on our Instagram stories

We want to keep track of how many of you are coming so please sign up with the link below!

As usual, feel free to email us at [email protected] if you have any questions.

See you soon!

Hi everyone!

The most awaited event of the semester, ALCOHOLIC ARTISTS is back this Friday (23rd), 8pm, in the Mensa.
You will be able to order a wonderful That-Time-of-the-Semester cocktail and we will provide artistic supplies.

The theme? Draw your Drink. But you’ll have to show up if you want more details 😉

So if you’re interested in getting a little tipsy while expressing your creativity, you should definitely join us for our first official event of the semester.

Hoping to see you there!

However, due to the situation regarding Covid-19, the event will be slightly different. You have to sign up before going and there is a maximum of 30 people. Since the event will be held in Elliott, reservations can be made via the Elliott reservation system. It is important to reserve a spot for DOWNSTAIRS, so not event.
Happy alcoholic artists!
