Thanksgiving Celebration Potluck

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 22
4:00 - 6:30 pm
Common Ground House

2154 Summit Avenue
St. Paul, MN

What is a potluck? A potluck is a dinner party in which guests bring dishes to share.

International students and their guests are invited to a Thanksgiving Celebration Potluck on Wednesday, November 22 starting at 4:00 pm at the Common Ground House located on Summit Avenue across from the arches.

We will be providing some traditional Thanksgiving dishes, but you are encouraged to bring a favorite traditional dish from your home country if you'd like to share your cooking. We hope to see you all there, be sure to come hungry!

This event is sponsored by OISS and Mentor Program, and Dean of Student Life.
