$Cal Poly Alumni \u2014 New York Founders Day Celebration$

Join fellow New York Mustangs for a Founders Day Celebration on Saturday, March 7!
About this Event

Alumni and friends are invited to celebrate Cal Poly’s founding from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday, March 7, at d.b.a. in the East Village (41 1st Ave, New York, NY 10003).

Cal Poly’s story began March 8, 1901, when Gov. Henry Gage signed legislation creating the university after a successful grassroots effort led by journalist Myron Angel and local supporters.

This Founders Day, we’re celebrating 125 years of Learn by Doing and Mustang pride. Come mix and mingle with alumni and friends, show off your green and gold, and enjoy celebrating everything you love about Cal Poly.

The event is free to attend, but registration is requested to ensure an accurate head count for this year’s limited-edition Cal Poly Founders Day swag. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. This event is located off the 2AV subway stop. The event is open to Cal Poly alumni and guests of all ages.

Space is limited. Registration closes on Thursday, March 5 or when full. We hope to see you there!
