Discover WKU's events!

There are MANY free and inexpensive events sponsored by Western Kentucky University throughout the year.

You can check at the WKU Events link here:
http://www.wku.edu/Info/Events/

I find the best events under Arts, Music and Theater – but there are other places you can click on, such as Athletic Events, Campus Events, and Ag Expo Center events, for example.

If you are interested in FREE events, try a recital (under Arts, Music and Theater) or a presentation speech (under Campus Events).

Enjoy!
