UMASS Amherst Homecoming Fun at Kendrick Park

UMass Amherst pride met downtown Amherst charm during Homecoming weekend, and our Amherst Innovative Living team was happy to be part of the celebration! Community Spirit Central brought students, families, and community members together at Kendrick Park for student group performances and family-friendly activities.

One especially big hit? A VERY large Connect 4 game, which Minuteman Sam enjoyed playing with some friends! Between the performances and friendly competition, there were plenty of opportunities to connect and share in the Homecoming spirit.

At Amherst Innovative Living, we love participating in events that bring our community together. University-hosted celebrations like Community Spirit Central encourage students and their families to explore downtown Amherst and build connections beyond campus.

Thank you to the University of Massachusetts Amherst, the Amherst Business Improve District and everyone else who helped make this event possible. We’re proud to be part of a community with so much spirit, and we look forward to more opportunities to celebrate together!
