In our countdown to the Winter vacation, we have some dedicated festive activities over the next 2 weeks over in our Connection Café. Come get into the festive spirit with Residence Life and the Art Exchange!

The Art Exchange is a great place to spend a lunch break, bring your friends, or meet someone new. Some of our Residents' Assistants will also be around to chat with if you needed any information or advice. 

These are weekly sessions every Wednesday from 12 - 3pm in the Art Exchange and are FREE of charge. All materials supplied so just turn up to have a go any time whilst we're open. 

This week, have a go at:

  • print your own wrapping paper

We also have the standard offer of arts and crafts supplies such as watercolour painting, mindful colouring, and knitting and crochet supplies. 

 

Accessibility:

The Art Exchange is accessible to wheelchair users.

All students are welcome to attend. If you have any additional needs please email us in advance (reslife@essex.ac.uk)  to discuss how we can make the sessions more accessible for you. Alternatively, if you prefer, please drop by one Wednesday to see how the session are run and discuss in person. We have RAs (student staff) working every week who are able to provide 121 support with the activities, if this is something you would like just let us know when you arrive.

This is our last session of the year but we'll be back in the Spring term with more Connection Café activities - we hope to see you then!
