SLDL Highlights

Uqhakamishelwano: The Arts Communicate and Connect

This month we are highlighting Yvonne Farrow, a Master’s Candidate in Arts Management! Farrow visited Cape Town, South Africa for a field study trip where she was inspired by many of the artists there. You can read more about Farrow's experience here.

Amplifying Student Voices

We are inspired by Yvonne Farrow and want to highlight your work! As a way to connect students within our large, learning community, we will be creating a quarterly issue, promoting and amplifying students' work. Send us your academic passions to student.life@cgu.edu.
