The event will be held Wednesday, March 27, from 3:30-5:30pm in the AWC Library annex at the Yuma Campus, 2020 S. Ave. 8E.
“Please join us for this academic and performative artwork and learn from our amazing AWC students,” said Ellen Riek, AWC Professor of English.
All Showcase participants are eligible for $7,500 in scholarships that will be announced during the event. Details regarding presenters and project descriptions will be posted here the day of the event.
Since 2008, the event has served as a platform to highlight student projects, and over time it has also become an opportunity for students from Yuma, San Luis, and Parker campuses to earn scholarships.
