Transfer: Art Museum and Hocus Pocus


Over the past two months, the Transfer LLC in South Tower has been trying all types of new adventures and thriving! One of my favorite parts about being the Resident Assistant (RA) for this community, is that the residents have actually built their own community! Between floors 19 and 20 there are roughly 72 residents. With that being said, there is usually a group between 5-10 people hanging out in the lounge together! Through making these connections with one another in the lounge, many have found similar interests, same classes, and have even began creating some of those life-long friendships with one another!

Highlighting the month of October, the Transfer LLC joined the Transfer LLC located in Riverview and went to the Milwaukee Public Art Museum! Every first Thursday of each month is free entry for students! We took public transportation to the museum and spent roughly 2 hours exploring the different exhibits and taking pictures with one another!

However, the fun did not stop after the art museum! The lounge for this LLC was super excited about it being the month of Halloween and decked out the lounge with spooky decorations! On Halloween night, RA Alyssa planned a Halloween event called Fang-tastic Fiesta.  There was caramel apples, pumpkin pie, candy, apple cider, and an assortment of sweet treats! In addition to being able to dive deep into theses spooky snacks, the residents watched Hocus Pocus using a projector in our lounge!


There was over 20 residents that stopped by for this event and either grabbed some snacks (caramel apples, candy, pumpkin pie, apple cider, etc) and stayed to watch the movie!


We flipped our lounge around so we could use a projector for Hocus Pocus! Also notice all of the fun Halloween decorations in these two pictures in the Transfer LLC lounge in South Tower!

I’ve learned through my few months as a RA that free food and entertainment is usually the way to go, so many people love to indulge, socialize, and simply hangout when food is involved. However, the fun doesn’t stop there! Check back again next month to see what we are up to!
