Take Our Children to Work Day 2026

Carnegie Mellon University is thrilled to announce the return of our annual Take Our Children to Work Day on Thursday, April 23, 2026, from 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM.

This year’s event promises an afternoon of fun and excitement for children ages 8–15 and their parents or guardians. New for 2026: To ensure all families can participate, the committee is introducing a virtual track via Zoom for children unable to join us on campus.

We Need Your Help! While registration isn’t open yet, we are officially looking for volunteers to help make this day a success. Whether or not you have children participating, please consider joining us for this rewarding afternoon of community and fun.
