Show Your Work!

An informal creative showcase for the Info Commons community
Show Your Work Webform Banner

We see you working in the Info Commons. If you’ve ever booked the Recording Studio to make music or a podcast; created or edited a movie on one of our iMacs; sat in the workspace drawing, writing, or crafting; or digitized old home video and audio cassette tapes, the Info Commons invites you to share a bit of your work with other members of the library community. The show-and-tell will not be a formal critique but a chance to discuss and support each other's work.

Who: YOU! Amateur and professional creatives who work in the Info Commons and want to share a little of your work with others.

What: Present approximately 15 minutes of your creative work. We have a projector and can help you with A/V. Each session will include multiple presentations, followed by a group Q&A with the audience.

Where: Info Commons Lab

When: NOTE: If you cannot make at least one of these dates, we ask that you hold your submission for the next round of our program. Thank you!

•    Thursday, July 18, 6-7:30pm
•    Saturday, August 17, 3:30-5pm
•    Saturday, September 14, 3:30-5pm

This form will be open for submissions until 11:59pm on Wednesday, July 10, 2024.
