WCC Conference Services

On saturday, Feb. 17, the Asian community in Michigan and beyond, marked the Lunar New Year. The group Ann-Hua Chinese School from Ann Arbor, who has been using the Washtenaw Community College's Morris Lawrence facilities to practice their dances and choreographies for a decade, led an event at the Briarwood Mall to celebrate the year of the snake. An article was written to share those moments and highlight what the group promotes.

Additionally, next week, we will be hosting the 2025 Farm Stop Conference at the Morris Lawrence building, from March 2nd through March 4th, where the group and its attendees gather, learn from one another, share best practices, and envision the role we’d like to see farm stops play in our local food ecosystems.
