Office for Women's Affairs Dean Yvette Alex-Assensoh said the groups are working together to remind the IU community of staff members' daily contributions to the ongoing success of the university, for work both seen and unseen that facilitates learning, research, success and well-being on campus. During the event, IU staff members will have the opportunity to exhibit their hobbies and talents.

Last year, almost 50 male and female staff members participated in the event, with demonstrations that ranged from chocolate houses to jewelry, quilts and photography.

Many staff members who exhibited last year said they found the event rewarding because it provided an opportunity to showcase their talents and to see the talents of other IU employees. All IU staff members are encouraged to participate in this event, which is free.
