This is Your Moment to Make a Collective Impact

The wait is over! Join generations of women—alumni, parents, and friends—for the annual Gustie Women for Good giving circle event.

This special night is designed to connect our community and combine our resources, allowing us to achieve more together than we ever could alone. We invite you to gather your Gustie girlfriends, sisters, moms, and mentors for a powerful experience where your voice and philanthropy directly benefit current Gustavus programs.

Directed by Sarah Hauss, How the Light Comes explores the persistent emergence of illumination — within ourselves and in relationship to each other, as we journey from fragmentation to clarity, and from isolation to connection. Through dances that embody resilience, vulnerability, memory, and hope, our dance artists ask not only where light comes from but what it asks of us when it arrives. How the Light Comes invites us all to witness transformation in real time, to sit with the unknown, and to recognize the subtle, powerful ways light finds its way in. 

Tickets will be available online two weeks before opening night.

If you’re just starting your college search, the best place to begin is with a visit. Sophomore and Junior Day on Friday, April 16 is your chance to see what Gustavus is really like while classes are in session, students are still on campus, and spring is in full swing.

Gustie Days are select Saturday visits that let you step right into life at Gustavus. Get to know campus through a guided group tour, hear real stories from students on a panel, learn the basics in an info session, and enjoy a meal in our dining hall. Plus, take home a fun piece of Gustie swag.
