Old friends reconnected and new friends were made when the Butler MFA family gathered December 12th at the Efroymson Center for Creative Writing for the annual MFA holiday party. A holiday reading, desserts and drinks, and great conversation made the party a perfect capstone to a successful semester.
The Efro house, normally occupied by lively workshops, class discussions, or pen-wielding students, was transformed into a festive scene. Organized by the MFA administrators, the party is a favorite among new and seasoned students. With final portfolios turned in, students and professors had the opportunity to bask in the glow of their classwork success – or at least the glow of the fire.
Although the rooms were filled with laughter, friendly chatter, and discussion of current events, the evening also contained excitement for spring classes and resolutions to continue work over winter break.
