Richmond: Friendsgiving Dinner

As the leaves turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold and the crisp autumn air fills our campus, we’re reminded of the warmth and camaraderie that define our alma mater. Join us for our 3rd annual Friendsgiving Dinner on campus, an evening of good company, delicious food, and Spider connection.

This year’s dinner coincides with Veterans Day, and we’ll take a moment to honor those who have served. To accommodate guests attending the Spider Men’s Basketball game vs. William & Mary at the Robins Center, we’ve adjusted the start time. A convenient gameday shuttle stop at the Jepson Alumni Center makes it easy to attend both events.

We believe that sometimes, the simplest gatherings bring the most joy, and we’d love for you to be part of this annual tradition.
