ESN (Erasmus Student Network) Twente holds a cultural event in which international student associations of the University of Twente are invited to participate by selling food and presenting workshops. UT Muslims is honoured to present its first Hijab workshop at the University of Twente. Lunch starts at 13:00 and UT Muslims sold some snacks which included baklava, Petit four and Turkish delight. The Response was positive with about 25 portions sold. The workshops will begin at 14:00 and while people were having lunch, the venue of the hijab workshop is being prepared We had many flyers about Islam and hijab which were distributed to the participants. We were able to gather lots of headscarves as well so that each participant will have a variety of choices. It finally time to start and the workshop began with a video of interviews of sisters who wore hijab. It gave an insight on why they wore the hijab. The instructor with the help of her assistants then demonstrated how the hijab is worn. Apparenty there are different ways in which it can be styled. This shows that the hijab can actually be fashionable. At first the participants made some awkward errors as it was a new experience. Nevertheless, they enjoyed it and it all seemed like they were all playing dress up. The instructor was able to show three different styles of hijab and the participants had positive feedback. One participant said, "I think it looks very pretty", while another one said, "I think it is very nice to have a programme like this as it is quite uncommon". UT Muslims would like to thank ESN for inviting us to contribute in the cultural event, Astuti Tri Padmaningsih for becoming our presented/instructor and all the participants for making this event successfull. We hope to see you again soon!
