Enrich your uLethbridge experience and become involved with campus and fine arts clubs.
Interested in surfing in California? How about joining a debate in Ottawa? There are opportunities to attend music concerts, conferences and art shows, and go on ski trips —just to highlight a few.
There are more than 70 clubs on campus ranging from social and athletic activities, travel, religious fellowship, and charitable and cultural support. Clubs provide opportunities for you to meet new people on campus, develop a support system, connect with other students in your program or try out a new interest. Membership is open to all full-time and part-time students attending the University of Lethbridge, as well as all professors, staff and the community.
Visit the Students' Union Clubs page for an up-to-date list of all current clubs on campus as well as information about starting a new one. Also look for "clubs week" in September when representatives from all campus clubs set up information booths in the University Hall Atrium.
“There are a lot of out-of-class opportunities available at uLethbridge if you look for them: clubs, exchanges, fine arts productions, co-op, volunteering, the list goes on. One of my most memorable experiences was my involvement in the Rotaract club. Through Rotaract, I've been given leadership opportunities, a chance to put my education to work, and made some great friends!”

Clubs for Faculty of Fine Arts students
Art Society
The U of L Student Art Society is structured around three main goals:
- To build relationships between students early in their degree and students late in their degree.
- To provide resources and opportunities to students that go beyond in-class resources.
- To help grow a sense of community within the Art Department.
The Art Society believes in bridging the gap between senior Art students and those in their first year.
The Art Society has more than 300 members and displays artwork in several community venues including the Penny Coffee House, Sterling Mutuals, City Hall, and Westside Starbucks.
