Irwin Library is celebrating its 50^th Anniversary Celebration on Sept. 9, 2:00-4:00 pm, and we want YOU, the students of Butler University, to be a part of it!

We are seeking student volunteers for a fashion show featuring styles of 1963, the year Irwin Library opened its doors. The fashion show, which will take place on Sept. 9 at 3:00 pm in Irwin Library, is a senior capstone project for Butler student Kelsey Nylin. Clothing, along with hair and make-up assistance, will be provided by Butler’s Department of Theatre.  We need both men and women models. So what are you waiting for?

To be a model: 

• Contact Kelsey Nylin at knylin@butler.edu by Wednesday, Sept. 4, to sign up for a fitting.

• Arrive at Irwin Library on Monday, Sept. 9, no later than 2:00 pm.

We hope that everyone will come out to celebrate Irwin Library with us!
