Event Schedule

Homecoming Festival | 11:30 a.m.–2 p.m.

Lost Arts Festival | 12-4 p.m. | Grohmann Museum 
The Grohmann Museum's 15th annual Lost Arts Festival will celebrate the activities and ways of work captured in the paintings and bronzes in the museum’s permanent collection. In past years, we've been thrilled to showcase a shoecarver, glass founder, woodworker, spinners, and master painters who all share their expertise and demonstrate their techniques as the Grohmann Museum becomes a laboratory for the creation of Lost Arts. This event is free for the MSOE community.

Cheer on MSOE's women's soccer team as they face the Eagles of Benedictine University. Don't miss exciting halftime activities.

Oktoberfest | 2–4 p.m. | Campus Center Patio 
Experience the rich traditions of German culture with live performances by Die Musikmeisters, a traditional German band led by Dana Legg, MSOE’s coordinator of music programs. Enjoy lively tunes and dance to classic German folk songs as we bring the spirit of Oktoberfest to campus.

This is a pay-to-attend event, open to students, parents, families, faculty, staff, and alumni. Everyone is required to purchase a ticket. Your ticket includes two beers, a collector’s pint glass (**available in limited quantities/while supplies last)**, and light food.

To participate in beer tastings, attendees must be 21+ and will be ID'd at the door. Exciting activities like the stein-holding competition and Hammerschlagen will round out the celebration—come and enjoy with friends, colleagues, and fellow MSOE community members!
