Mask4Mask: Collage Button Making

Join us for our quarterly Mask4Mask event: collage button making! We will have lots of collaging supplies available, so come make some fun buttons and meet new people!

Mask4Mask is a space to meet new COVID cautious friends, make connections, and do fun masked activities together. Mask4Mask is open to all WWU students, alums, and community members who mask and want to protect themselves and their communities against the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Masks will be provided at the event. We will have several different shapes and styles of masks available to try out at the event as well.
