Get ready for a night of creativity, curiosity and connection—just for grown-ups! Join us at Ellington’s Restaurant in the Holmes Student Center for a Huskies Night Out that blends great food with hands-on fun.
Enjoy a plated dinner and a complimentary glass of wine or beer before diving into an evening of interactive activities, led by NIU STEAM, that will spark your imagination. Try your hand at driving and coding Sphero robots, design and cut your own creations with a laser cutter, and light up your art with glowing paper circuits.
