Dearest Renaissance Upward Bound Scholars,
Summer 2023 is quickly coming to an end!
We are excited to announce to all scholars that the 2023 Scholar Awards Banquet theme is:
"COTTON CLUB: The Audacious Renaissance Experience"
Date: Monday, July 24, 2023
time, location, and bus details to be announced soon
The awards banquet is an annual celebration of scholarly academic achievement(s) during the summer. On this summer, our theme is inspired by the 1920's era with decorative inspirations coming from The Harlem Renaissance, The Cotton Club (Harlem's premier nightclub in the 1920's), and Great Gatsby!
We ask that you begin to think about your banquet attire now and consider the following dress attire requests:
-
Color: Black and White (with accents of Gold)
-
Include: Jewels, Hats, Furs, Boas, Sequins, Beads, and Shiny Dress Shoes
To assist you with dress attire recommendations, please reference the photos below.
Best,
Renaissance Upward Bound
