VCU Welcome Week Art & Smoothie Cafe

VCU's Office of Multicultural Student Affairs worked with Nosaj Authentics during the university's Welcome Week 2016 to provide creative art programming for newly enrolled students. Over 40 students were treated to an evening of instructed art along with food and beverages provided by Tropical Smoothie.

Students had the opportunity to create their own version of Rodney the Ram paint by numbers style. The interactive art event gave new students the chance to meet and network with their future classmates, as they shared in the cool art experience before classes kicked off.
