Do Good Challenge

Join us in person at The Clarice or watch the livestream from home!

The annual Do Good Challenge inspires students to make a difference for the issues, ideas, and communities they care about. Students from across campus spend the year advocating, fundraising, volunteering and developing solutions for pressing social issues. The Challenge culminates in a Finals event where six teams pitch their project or venture and the impact they've made for the chance to win a share of more than $20,000.

Collaboration Through Puppetry in the 21st Century

The festival explores how puppetry is a mind expander, a sparker of creativity, a barrier destroyer and a bridge builder. Given the deep history of puppetry at University of Maryland, we will also examine the resurgence of puppetry in the here and now. Join us for workshops, presentations and opportunities to create.
 
Free and open to the University of Maryland community.
