Lockers for spring semester

To all of our current art students:
If you currently have a locker and want to keep it for the spring semester (you must be taking a studio art class in the spring) you can reserve it now by emailing artlockers@parkland.edu.  Any lockers not renewed must be cleaned out by the last day of finals Frid., 12/16.  Anything left in the lockers after that time will be disposed of.

Thanks!
The Art Program
