Art Week

This past week Residence Life organized "Art Week" to celebrate artists and various forms of art on LCC's campus. We had 4 different events during the week.
Monday: "Collaborative Music, Crafts and Coffee" Musicians met to exchange ideas, LCC students led art workshops, and coffee was served
Tuesday: "Cooking Class" Students could make mini fruit pies - crust, filling and topping with a creative twist (I led this one on my own!)
Wednesday: "Funky Jam" Musicians from Klaipeda and LCC combined to play jazz music together - always a highlight - and milkshakes were served
Thursday: "Art Show" An art gallery was set up with student and faculty/staff children's art, along with live music and "fancy water"
It was fun to see people come out to these events, and to see the art that was created. The Art Show was probably one of my favorites - it was refreshing to see all the art that students and children made come together.

interactive visual artwork that took place at Funky Jam - students could use paints to paint something that they heard in the music/experienced that evening

we even had some youth from the community that came to dance while the musicians played!

RA retreat

This past weekend I took my RAs on retreat! We went to a big lake in Lithuania, and rented a room in some kind of lodge place. It was pretty cold, and there was no heat in the room, but we had fun anyways. Some activities we did included mushroom hunting, fishing, grilling, and playing games. It was nice to get away and relax for 24 hours!

Here we are all bundled up and ready to watch a movie. We all climbed in the beds with coats and scarves and blankets and popcorn to stay warm!
