Past Events

White Elephant Reading
Manor Main Lounge was a challenge to find but worth it. Ugly sweaters and socks were had by most all the semester survivors who took up the challenge.

Gatsby Lawn Party
This happens every summer before the fall semester starts.  It’s a great way to meet up with new students, classmates, and friends.  Food, fellowship, and free giveaways!  (There’s also croquet.)  See you next year.

West Egg Writing Groups
We meet once a month over the summer to encourage each other to keep making beautiful work.  All kinds of writing is welcome.  If you’re interested, send us an email.

First Round on West Egg
Once a semester or so, we meet up.  We hang out, and if anyone has questions or things they want to discuss, we talk about them.  It’s casual, and we had a blast at the first one.  Stay tuned for the next round in January.

It's A Very West Egg Costume Party
(rock, paper, scissors release party)
Costume party, release party, reading: a triple helping of awesome.  Stay tuned next year to help us celebrate next year’s edition.

“One must have a mind of winter (or not)”
Collage Workshop with Deborah Keenan
Always incredible. We try to have one every semester. It’s a great chance to see arts collide and produce beautiful and unexpected results.
