 * Christmas On Campus**
 * Christmas on Campus involves local schools and after school programs around the area such as the Neighborhood Art House, the YMCA, the Boys and Girls Club, and several others.
 * The purpose is to have activities for those students who may economically disadvantage, as well as those who enjoy the Christmas spirit.




 * Dino Days**
 * A first Annual four day project hosted by Mercyhurst College's Archeology, Art, and Science Departments.
 * The students explored the era of dinosaurs and were involved with art projects that incorporated what they learned such as: creating your own dinosaur (size, color, what it ate, etc.), mini dinosaur sculptures, and several other.
 * Dino Days hosted Thomas Jefferson Elementary School.


 * Art Fair**
 * Each year Mercyhurst College hosts an Art fair in the Spring with a similar purpose to Christmas on Campus. It is a way to allow students to explore simple art projects and become interested and involved within the arts.
