The 2016 SustainableUW Festival took place Oct. 17-23, with events happening across the University of Washington. See our festival calendar for a full listing of events.
The annual SustainableUW Festival celebrates sustainability efforts at the University of Washington, highlighting the amount and breadth of contributions and leadership efforts across campus as well as providing opportunities for students, faculty and staff to get involved. Events are hosted by many departments, student groups and organizations at all three University of Washington campuses during the festival.
Some of the event highlights include:
Monday, Oct. 17: Huskies for Humanity | Kane Hall Walker-Ames Room, 3:30 p.m.
Tuesday, Oct. 18: Exhibitor Fair | HUB Ballroom, 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Wednesday, Oct. 19: Careers Meet & Greet | HUB 334 (room change), 3:30 p.m.
Thursday, Oct. 20: Husky Highlight | Paccar Hall Deloitte Commons, 4 p.m.
Friday, Oct. 21: UW Sustainability Open House | Gerberding B40, 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.
These are just a taste of the many events on the festival calendar. We invite anyone on campus to create an event during the festival or to let us know about already-planned events to include to the festival listing.
The theme for this year's festival is "Connect the Dots." We hope the scope of festival events not only provides a look at the many diverse areas sustainability encompasses, but the need to make the connections and address the larger picture to achieve our goals.
There are many opportunities to join in the SustainableUW Festival's celebration of sustainability. Contact us at sustainability@uw.edu to learn how you can be part of the festival as an exhibitor, sponsor or event organizer.
