Alumna creates Grand Valley-themed coloring pages

Coloring books are no longer just for kids. Grown-ups everywhere are rediscovering the magic of drawing inside (or outside) the lines with the recent adult coloring book trend in the U.S.

In addition to being just plain fun, many who have jumped back into coloring describe it as being meditative, relaxing and challenging at times.

As the academic year comes to a close, students, faculty and staff are now being encouraged to color Grand Valley with new university-themed coloring pages.

Designed and illustrated by alumna Carly Van Eck, '12, the pages depict the Kirkhof Center, Cook Carillon Tower, DeVos Center courtyard, Little Mac Bridge, and Louie the Laker.

To join the fun and color Grand Valley, visit www.gvsu.edu/socialmedia to print the illustrations, and share completed pages on Instagram and Twitter by using the hashtag #ColorGV.
