Chocolate potluck, 2025 Photo Contest winners, student research updates, and networking with WRRC staff
TUCSON, Ariz. (Jan. 23, 2026) — The University of Arizona Water Resources Research Center (WRRC) will host its 22nd Annual Chocolate Fest on Thursday, Feb. 12, 2026, from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. The popular, mouthwatering celebration brings together water professionals, researchers, students, and community partners for an upbeat hour of connection—plus a decidedly sweet twist for chocolate lovers, and where the WRRC will announce its 2025 photo contest winners.
This year’s Chocolate Fest features a chocolate potluck theme, inviting attendees to bring chocolate in any consumable form to share with fellow guests. During the event, WRRC will also announce the winners of its 2025 Annual Photo Contest. In-person participants will have the opportunity to mingle with WRRC staff and regional water colleagues, and WRRC plans to spotlight several students who will provide updates on the water-related work and research they’ve been doing this year.
WRRC strongly encourages in-person attendance so participants can enjoy the chocolate potluck and connect face-to-face with colleagues.
