Prizes to be awarded. The Bowdoin Expo - Returning Bowdoin artisans and local craftspersons exhibit their wares and showcase their talents at a Bowdoin Expo. See demonstrations and purchase finely crafted wares from fellow alumni and some of Maine's finest artists. If you are an artisan and would like to be included in the Bowdoin Expo, please return the form included in your registration packet. We will assemble in front of Massachusetts Hall for a march across the Quad, ending at Morrell Gymnasium just in time for the Convocation ceremony.
Children can have hours of fun in a series of safe, supervised play areas.
Drop off the little ones and let them play in the Moon Bounce, have their face painted, play some games and have a snack. Ages 2 and older. Complimentary beer and soft drinks will be available. Alumni, family and friends are all welcome to play. The years during and immediately after World War II brought vast changes to Bowdoin - shrinking enrollment, multiple commencements each year, a military school on campus, students of varying ages sharing living space.
