Tie-Dye DIY

Wednesday, October 14, 2026 2:00pm to 4:00pm
Blank Honors Center
Ready to get a little messy and a lot creative? Join us for a tie-dye DIY event where you can customize your own T-shirt or bandana. Supplies are limited, so swing by between 2-4pm while they last! Come hang out, show off your artistic side, and leave with a one-of-a-kind creation. If you have to go to class afterwards don't worry - we will have ziplocs that you use to carry your item.

Central to the Honors Program’s mission and vision is creating an enriching community within the program. One of the ways we do this is through our events and programming. The program hosts social, educational, and celebratory events throughout the academic year that are aimed at fostering connections and building community.

Some of our re-occurring annual events are our End of the Year Celebration and Commendation Ceremony. 

We also host varying social and educational events throughout each semester. Some of our past social events include a Farmers Market Meet-Up, Snacks and Studying, Bingo, Paint Alongs, Movie Nights, Concert Meet-Ups, Resume/CV workshops, and more.

We love hearing ideas from students! If you have an idea for an event we would love to help to bring it to fruition. Please reach out to our Student Engagement Coordinator madison-kramer@uiowa.edu.
