"Telling Our Stories" is a generative writing class. We'll read short examples of compelling prose and take inspiration from what works. Whether you tackle a scene in your memoir-in-progress or write down some family history to share over the holidays, all experience levels are welcome. No previous experience necessary.

You'll be ready for the holidays with your new appetizer skills! We will be making three different items in this class:
* Charcuterie board how-to! We will make several spreads and dips to pair with cheese, crackers, vegetables, etc. We will also learn to make salami rosettes
* Savory Puff pastry appetizer which everyone will get to form by hand
* Tapas-style appetizer(s) made by hand as well
Class will take place on November 19 and November 20, please register for the date you wish to attend
Start the holiday season with UFC friends as we gather once again at El Macero to enjoy a festive sit-down dinner. Working with the theme “Santa’s Soirée,” members will showcase their design talents as they decorate tables with Santas from their own collections. Enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail from the cash-only bar while viewing the beautiful centerpieces.
The sit-down dinner will offer a house salad of baby kale, roasted butternut squash, dried apples and candied pecans, rolls and butter, and a choice of Chicken Marsala, or a vegetarian/vegan stir-fry. Assorted dessert bars and coffee will end the meal on a sweet note.
Raffle tickets for a fabulous handmade Scandinavian Christmas tree will be sold. In the generous spirit of the holidays, please bring non-perishables for the UCD Student Pantry.
The cost for this event is $70 and the registration deadline is Friday, November 22. Reserve your spot online soon, as this event has limited seating and the reservations fill quickly.
