What it is

One room, every creative program.

The forum brings students from across UML's creative programs together to share their work, discover what others are doing, and find chances to collaborate. It isn't a formal showcase or a high-stakes presentation. It's an afternoon to connect, trade ideas, and build relationships across disciplines.

Have a project?

Reserve a table or whiteboard, show what you're working on, and recruit people for it.

Looking for collaborators?

Post what you need on the collaboration board and meet students with the skills you're missing.

Just curious?

Come see the creative work happening across campus. Stay for pizza and the raffle.
