Sunday, 11/11

10:00 am: Astrologist's Word Bank with Abigail Cloud Ever feel like you need a little revitalization in your writing vocab? Ever wonder about the internal personal of Sophia Loren or Ho Chi Minh? In this workshop, we'll play around with personae, language, and internet numerology to create poetry and short story word banks.

11:00 am: Tarot with Melissa Engberg
She may not be able to tell you what you'll spill on your suit next week, but come and join Missy to get some insight into your life's direction.

11:00 am: So You Think You Can (Folk) Dance with Brad Modlin
If not, now is the time to learn! What serious writer doesn't know the Lithuanian Alunelu or the so-called Mexican Hat Dance? Come make friends and and burn off the Saturday night dessert bar.

1:00 pm: Coaster Frames with Krissy Fairfield
Our resident scrapbooking expert will be helping participants create coaster frames, folding, stand-up frames for your favorite pictures.

1:00 pm: Organic Skin Care with Karen Craigo
Join Karen and experience a soothing way to beat November's effects on your skin. Make a "wet" mask on site, prepare a dry mask to take home, and put together a yummy, good-for-your-skin beverage, too.

2:00 pm: Crank This: How to Keep Your Bicycle Rollin' with David Williams
Bikes are one of the most efficient means of transportation invented by man. Even though winter is fast approaching, any time of year is a good tme for basic bicycle maintenance. This session will cover the basic elements of bicycle repair and maintenance the any rider should be familiar with. Note--this session meets off campus. Please meet David in the 2nd floor lounge (in East Hall) to head to the "shop." You don't need a bike to participate!

Also on tap: A quiet room for writing, with self-guided jump-start suggestions; our free PB&J Buffet, courtesy of the Graduate Writer's Club.
