Fall for All

Friday, October 16, 2026, 11 a.m.–2 p.m.
Howard Community College (on the Quad)
Howard Community College is excited to welcome you to our fourth annual Fall for All on October 16, 2026! This free, family-friendly event falls on a day when HCPSS schools are closed for students, making it the perfect opportunity to visit campus and enjoy a day of fall fun and festivities. We'll have pumpkin-themed activities and a pumpkin patch, face painting, moon bounces, candy, an inflatable corn maze, and more!
More details will be available as we get closer to the event. Until then, enjoy photos from last year's Fall for All!
