Paint the Windows
With paint the windows, we will have spots for student organizations to come and paint one of the Holmes Student Center windows on the ground level (same floor Starbucks is on) and main floor. We have limited spots, so it will be first come first served for sign ups. You can sign up your student organization by filling out the form down below.
When you are thinking of ideas for painting the windows, it should focus around huskie pride and homecoming. Student Involvement will provide the materials for all student organizations and student organizations cannot bring their own materials.
Student organizations will be able to select the date they will be able to come and paint. You will have the options of Friday, September 26th from 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM; Saturday, September 27th from 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM; and Sunday, September 28th from 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM.
Sign up using the linked sign up forms down below.
