Last year was packed with exciting events and milestones that showcased our vision and brought BHSc students together. Here’s a look back at the highlights of an incredible year!
The First Jugular Social
Our first event of the year was the Study Social and Paint Activity, which gave students the perfect opportunity to study for assignments or midterms while showcasing their creative skills through painting. This event was an excellent way to relieve stress and connect with peers in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Participants created beautiful pieces while enjoying a welcoming and stress-free atmosphere. This event was a perfect introduction to The Jugular’s mission and set the tone for a year of community-building and creative expression.
Valentine’s Day Goody Bags
In February, we brought warmth and cheer to campus with our Valentine’s Day Goody Bags. Each bag was filled with candies and handmade cards, spreading joy and kindness throughout the Queen’s community.
This small gesture helped brighten the cold winter days and gave students an opportunity to share love and appreciation with friends and peers.
St. Patrick’s Day Bake Sale
In March, our St. Patrick’s Day Bake Sale added a pop of green and sweetness to campus life. Students visited our booth to purchase delicious themed treats while supporting The Jugular’s initiatives.
The festive goodies helped raise funds to support our club’s creative endeavors.
Launch of Issue 1: A Milestone Moment
Our biggest achievement of the year was the launch of The Jugular’s first-ever issue, which we had been working towards all year. This event celebrated the incredible work of our authors and artists, who shared inspiring stories and art pieces reflecting their unique perspectives on the health sciences.
Guests had the opportunity to hear directly from contributors about their creative processes and the inspiration behind their works. The event also marked the debut of our magazine, a testament to the dedication and talent within our community.
What a year it has been! From forming connections through creative activities to celebrating the achievements of our magazine at the launch event, The Jugular has had a truly impactful year. We are so proud of what we have accomplished and are excited for the events and opportunities we have planned for the coming year. Stay tuned for Issue 2 and more chances to connect, create, and celebrate the intersection of the health sciences and the arts!
