UNLV will celebrate Take Your Child to Work Day on our Maryland campus on Thursday, April 23, 2026! The event invites UNLV employees to bring their children to campus to participate in a variety of activities showcasing UNLV’s diverse offerings. For some children, this is their first time on a college campus, making it a great opportunity to inspire their future goals.
Please see below for details about this year’s event:
- Programming will take place from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m.
- Lunch will be provided by the Family Advocacy Committee at the Student Union Amphitheater (North of Pida Plaza) from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m.
- Activities should appeal to children from 3-18 years of age.
In previous years, the event has brought approximately 200 children to campus. To make this event a success, we need your partnership. You can get involved in a number of ways. Groups, departments, and individuals may host an interactive event, volunteer for an event or during the lunch, or provide a monetary contribution. Examples of past hosted tables/activities include:
