Joensuu: Etiquette evening in Suvas (Suvantokatu 6) at 6 pm
Are you coming to ISYY’s 10th Annual Jubilee or are your own Student Organisations’ annual celebration coming up?
Welcome to Suvas to enjoy the evening and get to know etiquette related to the Annual Jubilee! We’ll go through together the burning questions WHAT, WHEN and WHY related to the Annual Jubilee all the way from the cocktail party to the first dance of the evening. In addition, we’ll learn how to sew a Municipal Ribbon and how to fold your napkin into “konjakkikorvat”.
Although we’ll practice the formal etiquette of the Jubilee, this evening is not formal in any way. On the contrary, this will be a relaxed hang out type of an evening - we’ll heat up the sauna too for you!
The event is part of the 10th annual celebration week, but everyone is welcome to participate in this whether or not you’re coming to our Jubilee. The etiquette we’ll go through during the evening can be used in other evening parties not just in ISYY’s celebration.
