Christmas is just around the corner and, in preparation for this year's holidays, Deusto has organized a series of Advent events that aim to encourage reflection, faith, solidarity and community.
The activities will begin on Wednesday, December 11 with the Advent and Christmas Eucharist that will take place at 13:00h both in the Gothic Chapel of the Bilbao campus and in the Loiola Centrum of the San Sebastian campus. The event will be a celebration of shared hope and will be accompanied by the student choir.
Later, at 14:00h., a charity lunch will be held in favor of the communities affected by the dana in the cloister of the auditorium of the Bilbao campus and in the Forum Hall of the Donostia campus. The events of the 11th will end at 15:00h with the literary session “Christmas Stories” in the Barandiaran hall, about traditional stories set at this time of the year.
The events of Thursday 12 will open in the cloister of the auditorium with the DECO Christmas workshop, between 11:00h and 15:00h, which will offer the opportunity to make sustainable Christmas decorations with natural elements and reused materials. To participate, you only need to sign up here indicating the time slot you will be attending. Afterwards, at 18:00h, the Deusto Campus premises will host the CineForum, where the film “Los que se quedan / The Holdovers”, released in 2023, will be screened.
On the other hand, Tuesday, December 17 will be the last opportunity to submit entries online to the “Se armó el Belén” contest, which will close at 23:59h. We remind you that the initiative encourages you to express your creativity by setting up a Nativity Scene, decorating your own or shared space or sharing your Christmas greetings.
The Advent activities will end on Wednesday 18 at 11:00h in the cloister of the auditorium of Bilbao and in the Forum Hall of Donostia, with a dynamic of “Secret Santa” for the University staff.
