Town and Gown

AdventGX has been producing and hosting our beloved community’s annual Town & Gown celebration since 2018. Inspired by the town and gown traditions of notable university communities such as Oxford and Cambridge, we established our Town (community) and Gown (university) celebration here in Aggieland to bring together friends from Texas A&M University with those who work and serve outside academia.

We gather for an evening of fellowship and learn about the University and a few of the many non-profit organizations that serve needs across the Brazos Valley. The Town & Gown Celebration is not a fundraiser. It is a community development event that fosters strong local ties by bringing together groups that may otherwise not find themselves in the same space. Town & Gown builds connections across sectors, neighborhoods, and industries over a shared meal, a great cocktail, and memorable dance moves inspired by fabulous local musicians.

We believe more and stronger relationships make for a better, more vibrant quality of life, so we celebrate our beloved Texas A&M, and our fantastic area businesses and non-profits, counting our many blessings. Here in the Bryan-College Station, we are among a fortunate few communities who enjoy college-town status and rich hometown heritage. What a gift! Come celebrate with us!
