The Craft Center is thrilled to welcome Laura McClain as our Spring 2026 Visiting Artist. Laura McClain is a wet felting artist and educator who works with wool to create functional and expressive décor, accessories, and wearables. At the heart of her practice is a method she calls Felt by Feel—a playful, embodied conversation between maker and material that allows her to stay connected to the wool’s changing textures, while tapping into her own responses as the work evolves. Laura has been creating with fiber arts since childhood and brings a balance of technical knowledge, curiosity, and fun to her teaching. To learn more about Laura McClain, please visit www.lauramcclain.art.

Volunteer at UO's only student-led community garden. Nearly every Sunday from 2-4 pm at the Grove Community Garden (1605 Moss Street - just behind Global Scholars Hall). 

Work parties are when we come together to collectively care for the space. We have raised beds and other planting areas that are managed by the overall community to produce food (mainly vegetables) for the student food pantry, the SSC Produce Drop, and of course (and often primarily) those who come each week to volunteer. So, a typical work party may include harvesting food, weeding beds, sowing seeds/transplanting starts, chipping a wood path, etc. There is no signup ahead of time, the only prep beforehand is dressing for the weather in clothes you don't mind some dirt/sweat on.  Sign up for our newsletter for weekly reminders and updates, and follow us on Instagram too! Note that at times, we have to cancel/reschedule work parties due to upredictable circumstances, and we may be unable to update this recurring weekly posting. See the above channels for the most up to date information. Feel free to email grovegarden@uoregon.edu with any questions or inquires.

Laura has been creating with fiber arts since childhood and brings a balance of technical knowledge, curiosity, and fun to her teaching. To learn more about Laura McClain, please visit www.lauramcclain.art.

In Dante’s Inferno, the author grapples with sin, its various manifestations, and its consequences. This time ultimately traces a trajectory of self-realization, acceptance, and accountability. Kitchen Dwellers embark on a similar odyssey over the course of their fourth full-length offering, Seven Devils. The Montana quartet—Shawn Swain [Mandolin], Torrin Daniels [Banjo], Joe Funk [Upright Bass], and Max Davies [Acoustic Guitar]—thread together an immersive and inimitable conceptual arc inspired by Dante’s Inferno and set to a soundtrack of folk-infused bluegrass spiked with psychedelic vision and rock energy.

Real employers. Real conversations. Right here on campus.

A practice interview helps you prepare for real-life interviews, which increases your chances of getting additional interviews and acquiring the job. It is also a great way to meet and network with professionals, which can lead to opportunities in the future. Anyone can participate in a practice interview and it’s fun to practice with people in different industries to see different styles of interviewing you might encounter in real life.

The UO Practice Interview Day is designed to help you acquire professional interview skills, get feedback from experienced professionals, and gain confidence. You will not be interviewing for a specific job at the company our volunteer works for. You will instead be practicing commonly asked interview questions and getting active feedback on your communication style, professionalism, and more.

Each practice interview will last ~30 minutes and you will get instant feedback from one of our professional interviewers.

Register in Handshake ahead of time to get tips and early access to the practice interview questions! Interviews are on a first-come, first-serve basis with multiple slots each half-hour. Set aside at least 30 minutes to participate. Drop-in and grab the next open time slot!

Volunteer at UO's only student-led community garden. Nearly every Sunday from 2-4 pm at the Grove Community Garden (1605 Moss Street - just behind Global Scholars Hall). 

Work parties are when we come together to collectively care for the space. We have raised beds and other planting areas that are managed by the overall community to produce food (mainly vegetables) for the student food pantry, the SSC Produce Drop, and of course (and often primarily) those who come each week to volunteer. So, a typical work party may include harvesting food, weeding beds, sowing seeds/transplanting starts, chipping a wood path, etc. There is no signup ahead of time, the only prep beforehand is dressing for the weather in clothes you don't mind some dirt/sweat on.  Sign up for our newsletter for weekly reminders and updates, and follow us on Instagram too! Note that at times, we have to cancel/reschedule work parties due to upredictable circumstances, and we may be unable to update this recurring weekly posting. See the above channels for the most up to date information. Feel free to email grovegarden@uoregon.edu with any questions or inquires. 

Our annual Korean Culture Night is back in a new, hot & trendy fashion! Highlighting one of the most popular nightlife hot spots for young people in Korea, K-NIGHT Hongdae After Dark will introduce games, food, and interactive pop-up booths to experience.

Most of the event’s seating will be floor seating on blankets, so if you have accessibility accommodation concerns, please reach out to us via Instagram @uoksa or email ksa.uoregon@gmail.com.

The Craft Center is thrilled to welcome Laura McClain as our Spring 2026 Visiting Artist. Laura McClain is a wet felting artist and educator who works with wool to create functional and expressive décor, accessories, and wearables. At the heart of her practice is a method she calls Felt by Feel—a playful, embodied conversation between maker and material that allows her to stay connected to the wool’s changing textures, while tapping into her own responses as the work evolves. Laura has been creating with fiber arts since childhood and brings a balance of technical knowledge, curiosity, and fun to her teaching. To learn more about Laura McClain, please visit www.lauramcclain.art.
