Two weeks of classes left, the DC Library is packed and your notes are a mess. Take one night off before finals take over.

So come build a gingerbread house. Grab 3–4 friends or your roommates (or show up solo and we’ll put you on a team). You get 40 minutes to make a gingerbread masterpiece, then everyone votes. The best house wins prizes and bragging rights.

Not here to compete? Drop in anytime, decorate a gingerbread cookie, grab a hot chocolate and take your cookie home, while supplies last.

Wed, Nov 25 · 6–8:30 PM · SLC Multipurpose Room

FREE · Drop in anytime · Prizes for the best gingerbread house

How the contest works
Teams of 4–5 get 40 minutes to build, followed by a 5-minute vote. Rounds start at 6:00, 6:50 and 7:40 PM. Spots in each round are first come, first served, so get there early. Once a round starts, you’ll have to wait for the next one.
