Creative campus activities like tie-dye give people an opportunity to relax, socialize and connect with the LCCC community.

Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) gave students a chance to get creative and meet others at a free tie-dye event on campus. The event gave people an opportunity to take a break from their classes and make something of their own.

For Brooklyn Rubero, the event was her first time trying tie-dye. She decided to attend because she wanted to “try something new and bond with my friends.” 

Zoya Williams also had never tried tie-dye before. She enjoyed being able to customize her design and make something that was exactly what she wanted. Her favorite part was being able to create different patterns.

The event was also a way for people to connect with others around campus. Rubero liked that LCCC hosts activities like this because they make it easier to meet people. She said she would attend more events in the future because she enjoys being involved with the campus community.

For Williams, the free event was also an easy way to spend some free time. She decided to go because there was no cost and she did not have a class she needed to attend at the time. 

Both participants saw the event as more than just a way to make a shirt. Activities like the tie-dye event give people a chance to learn something new while spending time with others. 

Events like the tie-dye activity give the LCCC community a chance to step away from schoolwork, try something different and get to know the people around campus. For anyone looking for a fun way to spend their free time, small campus events can be a simple way to get involved.
