Family Day and Fire in The Sky Festival
Family Day & Fire in the Sky Festival
Spend the day at Dominican University with your student, connect with other families, enjoy campus activities, grab something from the food trucks, shop Charger gear, and stay for an evening celebration under the sky.
Come see campus through your student’s eyes.
Family Day is a chance to visit your student, experience the Dominican community, and see what they have been learning, creating, and building since the start of the semester. Whether this is your first time on campus or your family already feels at home here, we invite you to spend the day with us.
Bring the Whole Family!
Reconnect with your student on Dominican's picturesque Doering Quad where you will enjoy live entertainment, delicious food, inflatables for all ages and family friendly activities.
Come Hungry
A variety of food trucks will be available on the quad. Grab a bite, relax, and enjoy the day together.
