Events and Summer Programs


Fostering community by facilitating thoughtful gatherings.
The Office of Events and Summer Programs (OESP) plans and executes Bowdoin College's institutional events, manages external events, and oversees space scheduling for the campus community and its guests. As a leading resource in event planning, we also provide guidance in best practices, offering logistical and design support to ensure successful, inclusive, and welcoming events. Our work aims to strengthen and engage the community while contributing to the common good.
