Join us for a Fall Family Weekend!

We have a great deal in store for you over the three days of Family Weekend and invite you to have a fun fall weekend at Wentworth!  Family Weekend gives you the opportunity to reconnect with student, as well as to connect with Wentworth! There is also some time to get to know Boston, everyone’s favorite college town.

 On Friday, we encourage you to come in early and relax in our Family Hospitality Suite before embarking on what’s sure to be an exciting weekend.  At night, try your luck with our annual casino night – no cash required, but lots of prizes to be won!

 On Saturday, sample the classes that your student takes as our esteemed faculty will present to you their favorite lectures.  Then stay for the Dean’s address as Dean of Students Annamaria Wenner will highlight major happenings across campus.  Looking for more fun after class?  Come to the Harvest Festival where you can build your own stuffed leopard, make your own street sign or get your picture taken with the Wentworth Leopard!

 What would be a trip to Boston without the chance to catch a show? Tickets are available for performances of the Blue Man Group, Improv Asylum and Shear Madness.  For those of you who want to stay close to campus, be sure to attend our Family Game show in Watson Auditorium!

On Sunday, end your weekend with a wonderful family breakfast and the ride of your life on one of Boston’s own Duck Tours!

 Family Weekend is one of the most exciting events to be held on the Wentworth campus.  We look forward to seeing you on this special weekend and trust that your time with us will be a memorable one! 

 Registration and ticket sales will open at 10:00 A.M. on Tuesday September 13th.  Don’t forget to register and buy tickets to our off-campus events!  Tickets will sell out so act fast!

 And if you have any questions feel free to contact our family weekend coordinator at familyweekend@wit.edu or contact the Office of Student Leadership Programs at 617-989-4080.

 We look forward to seeing you for a fun-filled fall family weekend!
