The CLCL is a great place to host an event! Our Lounge Space (PH120) has abundant seating and audio/visual equipment, allowing for a wide range of event types like movie nights, poster sessions, meetings, guest lectures, and more.

To reserve this space and begin planning an event, contact Director Claire Frances (claire-frances@uiowa.edu) no later than TWO WEEKS BEFORE the day you would like to hold the event.
