¡Hola Familia!
We hope you’re all doing well and staying warm as we head into the colder months! We’ve got some exciting events coming up, and we’d love to see you there. Here’s what’s on the horizon for OLA:
Recap: Hispanic Heritage Month Bake Sale
A huge thank you to everyone who supported our bake sale! The event was a success, and we’re grateful for all the help from our e-board and members who baked, set up, and sold treats. We couldn’t have done it without you! 🎂🍩
Join OLA for an evening of creativity and inspiration as we design vision boards to manifest our goals and dreams! Whether you’re focusing on personal growth, academic success, or cultural connections, this event is a chance to reflect on what you want to achieve and bring it to life through art. We’ll provide all the supplies—magazines, stickers, and more—so you can craft your own unique board that reflects your ambitions. Come ready to share, connect, and set your intentions for the year ahead in a fun, supportive space!
Celebrating Halloween festivities by hosting a watching party. It's an opportunity to have a social and entertaining event and enjoy Halloween treats. It's a nice way to enjoy a spooky holiday in a nice and cozy environment.
Join OLA in celebrating Día de los Muertos, a vibrant and meaningful tradition where we honor and remember our loved ones who have passed. Experience this rich cultural event by contributing to a community ofrenda (altar), decorating sugar skulls, and learning about the significance of the day in Latinx culture. Whether you're familiar with the tradition or curious to learn more, come enjoy food, crafts, and storytelling as we celebrate life and memory together. All are welcome to participate in this beautiful tribute to our ancestors!
Take a break and treat yourself at our Self-Care Night! We’re teaming up with the Social Work Liaison to bring you an evening dedicated to relaxation and rejuvenation. Join us for soothing activities, including face masks, mindfulness exercises, and a variety of self-care goodies. It’s the perfect chance to unwind, connect with friends, and recharge. Come as you are, and leave feeling refreshed!
