With the end of midterms in sight and spring break just around the corner, the Andersen Library gave students a well-deserved break from their studies while offering a preview of the upcoming relaxation of spring break.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Primetime Poetry<\/strong> was held on Tuesday, March 20, allowing students to engage in spoken word, either with their own poetry or with poems written by others.  Through a partnership with UW-W\u2019s Poetry Club and TIFU Cultural Ensemble, the Andersen Library was able to bring this event to life, emboldening students to let their voices be heard.  Some chose to watch instead of perform, forming a supportive and encouraging audience, cheering their peers on as they fought against their comfort zones and shared their love for the art of poetry.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uww.edu\/images\/library\/blog\/PrimeTime_1.jpg\" alt=\"Primetime Performance Wall\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uww.edu\/images\/library\/blog\/Primetime_2.jpg\" alt=\"Performer1\" height=\"300\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uww.edu\/images\/library\/blog\/Primetime_3.jpg\" alt=\"Performer2\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uww.edu\/images\/library\/blog\/Primetime_4.jpg\" alt=\"Performer3\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uww.edu\/images\/library\/blog\/Primetime_5.jpg\" alt=\"Performer4\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uww.edu\/images\/library\/blog\/Primetime_6.jpg\" alt=\"Primeitme Family\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uww.edu\/images\/library\/blog\/Primetime_Wall.jpg\" alt=\"Primetime_Wall Signed\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Paint and Sip<\/strong>, held on Wednesday, March 21, fostered an environment where individuals could express themselves artistically, using paint and canvases.
