On April 12, 2022, the VAR Lab team hosted the Council of Fellows meeting in our new space in Merwin 214/215. This meeting was particularly unique because it was the first in-person meeting on the Behrend campus for the Council since before the COVID-19 pandemic began in early 2020.
I was a presenter for a segment of our twenty-minute timeslot. My topic focused on the establishment of the VAR Studios strategic unit of the VAR Lab. I outlined the unit’s mission and then showcased the equipment and studio spaces that make the work possible. To conclude, I outlined our plans moving forward.
Overall, the reception was phenomenal! The Council expressed a great deal of interest in the work that we showcased in our presentation. We are thankful for the opportunity to have hosted this event.
P.S. Behrend’s catering was on point for this event. They went all out!
