Summer Welcome Receptions 2026
Summer Welcome Receptions are casual and fun gatherings held across the country that welcome incoming students, their families, and the Pitzer community to celebrate new beginnings, make connections, and begin the Pitzer journey together.

Hosting a Summer Welcome Reception is a wonderful way to give back to Pitzer and play a special role in welcoming the next generation of students and families. Our team handles invitations, RSVPs, communications, and event logistics—you simply provide the space and your warm hospitality.
