Join us for Shades: What Is My Identity? on Monday, November 9, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the Diversity Center. We'll begin with a presentation on intentionality and identity, exploring how our experiences, values, cultures, and communities shape who we are. Participants will then create a personalized stick figure craft, using colors, symbols, words, and drawings to represent the many parts of their identity and reflect on what makes them uniquely themselves.

We will have free resources, information, and good conversation!
