UW Commencement
da big one. There are over 5,500 people graduating so it will be CRAZY but hopefully fun (I'm not expecting everyone to come to this? I'm kind of doing it just to say I did it)
General Info
Doors open at 12:30, but you don't really need to be there until 1:30 if you don't want to listen to the speech. I have some suggestions:
- DO NOT bring large bags or backpacks. The stadium only allows one small bag per person, you can read the rules here on their website.
- BRING WATER and something to do because it gets real boring (3 hours of name reading)
- They sell food like any other stadium - not bad, but kinda pricey
Parking
It's the worst. Don't even try to drive near the stadium (use the parking pass!)

UW Design Graduation Ceremony
Meany Hall / UW Campus
General Info
This is the graduation I'm only allowed to get 5 tickets + 3 waitlisted tickets :( It's for the entire Art Department but I'm doing my best to steal my friends' extras. I'll have to be there at 8 a.m.
Parking
I ordered 3 all-day parking passes for the Central Plaza Parking Garage. You can also park there for the large commencement in the Husky Stadium and walk!

UW Design Show - Family and Friends Night
Jacob Lawrence Gallery / University of Washington
General Info
There are around 60 students in the UW Design undergrad program, about 20 in each concentration: Visual Communication Design (VCD), Interaction Design, (IxD), and Industrial Design (ID). This event is a reception and will probably be very crowded. There are snacks, a photo booth, pop up shop, and all of our lovely work :)
Parking
The closest parking in Padelford Parking Garage, flat rate of $5 each car for the evening. I would suggest dropping people off in front of the art building first.
