Media Advisory: Campus Canvas: Wake Foresters to paint on Davis Field
Who and What: Wake Forest seniors Jordyn Albritton and Ariel Hawley will be laying down tarps on Davis Field and providing a variety of canvases, acrylic paints and brushes for students, faculty and staff to use to make artwork as part of Campus Canvas.
When and Where: Thursday, April 23, from 12 – 4 p.m. on Davis Field
Why: The Campus Canvas event will provide space for members of the Wake Forest community to take a break during the school and work week for relaxation and community building.
“Jordyn and I both enjoy painting as a hobby but we lacked the time or place to engage in this type of artistic activity,” said Hawley. “We hope this event will provide a fun, creative outlet for Wake Foresters, regardless of ability.”
Campus Canvas is sponsored by Wake Forest’s ‘Thrive’ program — a campus-wide, comprehensive approach to wellbeing featuring eight branches including emotional, environmental, financial, intellectual, occupational, physical, social and spiritual. This month, Wake Forest is focusing on emotional wellbeing on campus.
