Are you ready to have a spooktacular time this Halloween season? It's that eerie time of year when we gather for some frightfully fun crafting and board games. If you're looking for a fantastic way to celebrate All Hallows' Eve, you're in for a treat!

🕸️ Date: Friday, October 27th
🕷️ Time: 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
🎃 Location: PSB 152
👻 Dress Code: Halloween costumes are encouraged! But not required! You can dress up as a grad student :)

Join us for an evening of crafting and gaming with a creepy twist. Here's what's in store:

🦇 Crafting Corner:
Bring out your inner artist with Halloween-themed crafts! We'll provide all the materials you need for creating spooky decorations and eerie treats. Pumpkin decorating and macabre mask-making are just the beginning. Let your creativity run wild!

🎲 Board Game Bonanza:
If you're more into strategizing than crafting, don't worry! We'll have an array of spine-tingling board games. From classic favorites to mysterious new additions, there's a game for everyone. Feel free to bring your own, too!

🍔 Ghoulish Grub:
No party is complete without some eerie edibles. We'll have a creepy but delicious spread of Halloween-themed snacks and beverages. If you have a favorite dish or spooky treat, feel free to bring it along!

🎁 Costume Contest:
Dress up in your spookiest, silliest, or most creative Halloween costume and stand a chance to win a fantastic prize.

🎶 Frightful Tunes:
A playlist of hauntingly good tunes will set the mood for the night. If you have any Halloween-themed music suggestions, send them our way!

Please RSVP by October 27th at noon to ensure we have enough supplies and snacks for everyone. We can't wait to celebrate this chilling holiday with you!

We hope to see you there, and remember, whether you're crafting or gaming, the most important rule of the night is to have a BOO-tiful time!

We hope you had a fantastic summer study and research! For new graduate students, welcome to ASU!! As the week draws to a close, what could be better than catching up with your peer and making some new friends, relaxing, and treating yourself to some delicious appetizers and drinks?

🔥Come join us on Friday at 4pm at POSTINO! Free Drinks and appetizers (limited time only)!

Whether you're new to the graduate community or have been with us for a while, we believe events like these are a fantastic way to create connections, foster friendships, and simply unwind after a hectic week.

If you have any questions or would like more details, feel free to DM us❤️
