Banner saying "40" and "Celebration"

On Friday, April 24, 2026, the Center for Community and Civic Engagement (CCCE) will host a celebration of community engagement at Carleton. In honor of the fortieth anniversary of formal support for community involvement at Carleton, we will gather to take stock of all that we have created over the years and imagine the future of civic engagement at Carleton.

The CCCE staff and a team of alumni who have been instrumental in the evolution of this work have been organizing this event. We hope you and others who have been involved over the years will see this as a fun occasion to come to campus.
