One College. Five Campuses. 60 Years of Success.

For the first time in our 60-year history, CCAC is hosting an official Homecoming—and we're inviting the entire region to be a part of it!

We are shutting down Ridge Avenue and Allegheny Commons to transform the Northside Main Campus into a massive, one-of-a-kind outdoor festival. Whether you're a current student, a proud alum, or a neighbor in our community, it's time to see the campus like never before. The festival will include:

  • Food Trucks
  • Vendors
  • Live Performers + DJ
  • CCAC Exhibitions

Students, alumni, neighbors—come on home!

 

12-7PM

at 808 Ridge Avenue & 
Allegheny Commons

9/26/26

A Historic Celebration. A Massive Campus Takeover.
