Champlain College’s Musical Theater Club presents Be More Chill : The Musical! Our show will happen on December 6th starting at 5:00 pm, Doors will open at 4:30 pm.
Summary:
Jeremy Heere is just an average teenager. That is, until he finds out about “The Squip,” a tiny supercomputer that promises to bring him everything he desires most: a date with Christine, an invite to the raddest party of the year and a chance to survive life in his suburban New Jersey high school. But is being the most popular guy in school worth the risk?
There will be snacks and treats for sale outside the auditorium! All proceeds will go to fundraising our next show!

Zen Sketch
2025-12-10 17:00 - 19:00 | Room 201, S.D. Ireland Building, 391 Maple St, Burlington, VT, 05401, United States
Every Wednesday we meet at Ireland 201 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm to sketch!
Zen Sketch is a volunteer event hosted by the Animation Students and Felipe. The idea is to sketch using traditional methods. Every week we pick a theme and a challenge.
The purpose is to share a moment together, become more aware and focused, and practice traditional sketching techniques with pencils, colors, or whatever you prefer.
This is not a drawing contest, you’re not required to share anything. It’s more about stepping away from technology and enjoying a moment with good company and friends while sketching and having a good time.
This event is hosted by the Animation Program and open to the entire Champlain community. Students, faculty, and staff are all welcome to join us!

Graphic Design Capstone Showcase Event
2026-01-16 16:00 - 2026-01-23 18:00 | Champlain Art Gallery, Center for Communication & Creative Media (CCM), 375 Maple Street, Burlington, VT, 05401, United States
Senior Graphic Design majors will be showcasing their semester-long capstone projects in the Art Gallery! The showcase is called “Hyphae.”
Hyphae (hai-fee) is a hidden network beneath the surface. The strong threads which weave themselves in the ground, enduring anything in its path with one mission: sustaining its greater body. This exhibition is an exploration into our resilience in a time of uncertainty. We are the threads which connect us as one while able to still take our own paths. It is through this connection which brought us here today, we can exhibit the true meaning of Hyphae: A network of creatives who nourish growth, remain resilient, and continue to design in defiance of change.
