Join NMC students for a community-wide block party to celebrate 75 incredible years! We're wrapping up the spring semester and want students, alumni, staff, faculty, neighbors and friends to join the festivities. Everyone's welcome for an afternoon of carnival thrills, tasty bites from local food trucks, and live music.Test your aim at the dunk tank, bounce around on bounce houses, take a spin on the rides and enjoy all the carnival fun. There's something for every age and every thrill level!
Keep your eyes peeled! Swoop, NMC's newest addition, might just swoop in around 3:30 p.m. for a special appearance. Don't miss your chance for that selfie with our favorite hawk owl!
Planning to come earlier in the day? Northwestern Michigan College's Native American Student Organization will host a traditional pow wow on campus to honor 2026 graduates.
