2. Why did you choose to attend this event?
3. What did you do and/or learn at this event?
4. Would you recommend this event to future students? Why or why not?

Example

I attended the Art Therapy Night because I enjoy arts and crafts but don't have supplies at home. I made art and learned about how I can use art to take care of myself. I would recommend this event to future students because it was a lot of fun, and I made some new friends.

Please complete this challenge by Friday, March 29th. If you have any questions or wish to attend an unlisted event, contact Sarah Anne using your UTC email.
