Columbia Block Party!

Three university students play a game of frisbee as one student catches a white frisbee on Lewisohn Quad with dozens of other students and staff enjoying a campus block party in the background at Columbia University on a sunny spring day.

Sun, fun, and festive vibes — a great way to celebrate the end of the semester and the arrival of sunny spring days! In addition to tasty treats, there were games, crafts, furry dog friends, caricaturists, massage therapists, and a DJ spinning tunes for dancing. Happy May!
