Alumni who now work at Purchase as faculty or staff will come together to kick-off Alumni Weekend 2024 during a reception in their honor hosted by Dr. Peña and the Office of Alumni Engagement.
Alumni Weekend 2024 will serve up school– and class–based celebrations across campus. Revisit your favorite old haunts and explore new sights and sounds. Enjoy serendipitous encounters with old friends and classmates. Relive old times and make new memories. #ForeverPurchase
Join us at the Neuberger Museum of Art for an incredible evening reconnecting with friends and former faculty. Enjoy two free drink tickets, passed hors d’oeuvres and savory stations, music by DJ Eric Burgos, and more. We’ll also recognize the 2024 Alumni Awards recipients!
The symposium provides an opportunity for students to present their senior project research to peers, alumni, family, faculty and members of the community.
We are delighted to be able to come together to celebrate our students’ accomplishments.
All are welcome to attend!
Ease into the day by renewing your mind, body, and spirit.

Culture Shock is off the charts when it comes to college musical festivals. It has the area’s best emerging artists … a carnival … a food truck fest … and this year it will have alumni!*
Because Culture Shock and Alumni Weekend are overlapping on campus, AW24 attendees will be able to purchase a pass to attend all outdoor Culture Shock events.
If the weather causes concerts to move indoors, students have priority access and alumni tickets will not be sold.
Culture Shock Alumni Passes will be $15 for one night or $25 for the weekend.
Passes will be available for purchase on-site only by pre-registered AW24 attendees; confirmation of purchase must be shown at the entrance to Culture Shock.
