Voices: Arts for Social Change
Voices'
mission is to empower university students to use the performing arts
for positive social change through community outreach and student
engagement activities. We
hope to spread awareness about the power of the arts for social change,
help people discover creative ways to contribute to the world, and
empower people to make their artistic skills more meaningful. We gave
this group the name Voices because we believe everyone
has a voice, whether that be through music, writing, theatre, dance,
visual art, or circus arts, and we hope to inspire everyone to use that
voice for positive change in their community.

SEE Presents: America's Best Dance Crew Winner: The Elektrolytes!
Student Entertainment Events Presents: ABDC Winner The Elektrolytes
“America’s
Best Dance Crew” winners to perform and hold meet and greet
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Student
Entertainment Events is very excited to announce “Dance Daze featuring The

The Elektrolytes are an all-male dance crew

competitions, including the Hip Hop International USA 2011 Adult Division in
2011, after which they went on to finish seventh in the World Hip Hop
International competition. The group
aims to promote dance as a positive learning environment for all individuals,
regardless of race, culture, gender, sexuality, body shape, religion, or any
other factor. Their fun, insanely coordinated show is one not to be missed!
After the event, the group will be available
for a meet and greet to chat with the audience and take photographs.

Erasable Inc.'s (Late) Saint Patrick's Day Show
Once
upon a time there were snakes and potatoes wreaking havoc until St.
Patrick, the king leprechaun, rode into Ireland on a rainbow, distracted
the villainous creatures with a rainstorm of shamrocks, and knocked
them out with a pot of gold to the head. And that, children, is the
story of St. Patrick's Day.
Join your favorite group of part-Irish ragamuffins for a night of Guinness, blarney, and of course, free improv.
