STAR PARTY

There’s nothing like being under Texas’ starry night sky. Head to Rafes Urban Astronomy Center at 8:30 p.m. Friday, June 1, for a star party. Held every first and third Saturday of the month, Star Parties invite you to look through telescopes while learning more about the night sky. Admission is $5 per person at the door, starting 30 minutes after sundown.

In case of inclement weather, check UNT Astronomy’s social media or website for official announcements regarding possible relocation or rescheduling of events you plan to attend.

FLORAL IN FASHION

See fashion history up close! The Texas Fashion Collection at UNT is hosting Botanical Couture: From Garden to Garment at Dallas Arboretum’s DeGolyer House from Saturday, June 1, through Aug. 4.

In addition to the exhibit, a special event will take place at the Dallas Arboretum on June 15, featuring tropical tastings, fruity mocktails and an opportunity to wear your favorite floral fashion!

CONSTRUCTION AHEAD

Heads up! Lot 7 will soon be fenced off for staging and construction of a new research science building. Once the building is complete, designation of the remaining parking spaces will be determined.

To ensure enough room, a new commuter parking lot has been constructed on the site of the old Oak Street Hall on the corner of Ponder Avenue and West Oak Street. This lot will have 168 new student commuter parking spaces, available soon.

Please be mindful of any construction and refrain from entering any job site.
