The group visited different student workshops and learned from regional experts about different musical instruments like the dulcimer as well as Appalachian music in general.

CESL currently offers two language tables to help benefit the educational development of our students while simultaneously supporting the foreign language students at UK. Mrs. Lina Crocker started these events to help students, and she continues to lead them each semester in the Patterson Office Tower.

Several CESL students joined Mrs. Lina Crocker to enjoy a night of music at her family home, offering them a chance to show off their musical skills on a variety of instruments provided by the Crockers, such as guitars, dulcimers, and a piano, as well as lending the students the opportunity to bring their own.

The art exhibit showcased pieces from students of Magoffin High School in Salyersville, Ky., on storm stories that were a result of a tornado that struck the Salyersville area in March of 2012.
