Our vibrant community is one of the key factors that make KAUST an enjoyable place to thrive. Community Open Day is an evening for the community, by the community and is a celebration of the active and talented people who call KAUST home.
It's all about community involvement
Community Open Day is an opportunity for engaged community members to inspire others to become a member of their group, participate in an activity they're organizing, enjoy their art, or buy their wares. Tonight they'll showcase what they have to offer and how they contribute to making KAUST a great place to live.
There will be something for everyone from unplugged jamming to traditional Indonesian music, from board games to sports demonstrations, from sugar-free baking to homemade cookies, from startups to souvenirs, from live painting to hair braiding, from food trucks to University departments, and much more!
Great prizes will be available for attendees and those running booths!
Road Closure
A portion of Unity Boulevard between Discovery Square and the Student Center will be closed for the celebration. Busses and cars will be rerouted.
Getting there
Please consider biking or walking to the event. Shuttles will be available ongoing throughout the event from the off-campus bus parking lot across from Tamimi Supermarket to the Grand Mosque and back.
