Join us for our next installment of Night at the Museum, a series of monthly events for UI students that occurs on Thursday nights when the museum is open late.
This month, our session is aimed at helping students destress around midterms by making and viewing art. To do this, we're teaming up with Dana Keeton, a local artist and art therapist.
Express your story through art making. Participants will each create a Story Box to express their unique selves, strengths, and dreams using imagery, fabric, handmade papers and various collage items. The workshop will have a special focus on how participants use their strengths and social connections to support them through both good days and challenging times.
Snacks and materials provided.

Once a month, the Stanley hosts events designed to introduce the museum to University of Iowa students through engaging and creative activities. Nights at the Museum events occur on Thursday nights when the museum is open late. These events are planned and developed with the assistance of the Campus Engagement Coordinator, a student employee who works with museum staff to engage student audiences. Information about past Nights at the Museum can be found here. Attending student events also enables students to get a stamp on their Stanley Student Challenge card, which can be redeemed during finals week for a prize.
