Please meet Quinton and I in the gravel parking lot behind Scarlett Commons at 3:30 if you want to follow us there. We ask that you dress professionally since you are representing MTSU art education. You also should have read and received a copy of the book and have picked and excerpt to read before the activities. We loom forward to seeing you all there!

October 21-22 (Wednesday & Thursday) Halloween Bake Sale
Our first bake sale will be on October 21-22 in the Todd hall 2nd floor lobby from 8am-2pm. We will need at least 2 people working the table at all times and shifts are available in 30 minute increments. There will be a sign up sheet for times to work and food and drinks to bring in the next week. if you know any local companies who would like to donate any goods, please ask them! Free items=full profit!

October 29-30 (Thursday & Friday) Haunted History
We will be sponsoring a an art history themed haunted house that will be open to the public. Facilities and times are still undetermined, but we would like to have it from 5pm-7pm on both days in the room beside the 1st floor bathrooms behind the drawing labs in the Todd hall. There is an idea to convert the entire hallway into a haunted maze that ends in the room, where we will be serving refreshments and have Halloween themed games. Personally, I really like the hallway idea. We would also like to charge $2 or so to make a little money, but that too has not yet been confirmed. Anyone interested in working this event should email us as soon as they can!

October 31: Trick or Canning
The MTSU Psi Chi/Psychology Club has asked us to co-sponsor this event with them. On Halloween night, in addition to dressing up and getting tons of candy, we will also be asking business to donate canned goods that will go to our foodbank. I really don't see a reason not to do this, it's a great way to give back and seems like tons of fun! Again, please let us know if you wish to participate and we'll get you signed up!

Yard Sale this Friday and Saturday! Beth's House: 270 W. Thopmson Lane, Murfreesboro
This Friday and Saturday we will be having a yard sale at my house to raise funds for our t-shirts, among other things. I am pretty sure we will raise enough money to cover the cost of everyone's shirts with some left over. If you have any items you would like to donate, please contact me and we will arrange a way for me to get them from you! Also, if anyone would like to work the yard sale with us, you are more than welcome, just contact me for directions!

I think that's about all, if there's anything else I need to mention, let me know and I'll send out an email to everyone. :)
