Crafton traveled to a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away for May the 4th Day with Art Daze!!

May the 4th has become an official Star Wars holiday as a play on words for the famous Star Wars line “May the Force be with you,” a phrase used to wish others well.

Art Daze was a collaboration of the College’s Art Club, Student Senate, Crafton Library and Theatre Club to celebrate the various art programs on campus. The group coordinated the event in the quad and chose May 4th to make the celebration even more galactic.

Student Senate held their annual elections asking students to vote for the ‘22 to ‘23 student senate elected positions and to approve the Omnitrans referendum to continue free bus service for students. Seventy-seven students cast their votes for the 14 positions, and received a free burrito for doing so. Sean Ceballos will be taking the helm as President and Robert Alexander serving as Student Trustee.

Library staff held a Zine making workshop, the art department had painting and drawing sessions including spun art. The theatre department incorporated improv acting as well as a set and prop showcase.

Students entered a Star Wars costume contest and Grogu or “Baby Yoda,” as he is commonly known, was spotted on campus. Viva la Boba provided delicious, handcrafted drinks and a DJ kept the energy and atmosphere on beat.
