The Friars’ 70th Anniversary Celebration


April 10-11, 2026

Ann Arbor, Michigan

Join 70 years of Friars alumni in Ann Arbor on April 10-11, 2026, for an anniversary celebration in tandem with the Glee Club's spring Hill concert.

We have a weekend of fun planned, including a Friday evening banquet at the Sheraton Ann Arbor Hotel, Saturday daytime gatherings at the Michigan League, and the Glee Club concert at 8:00 Saturday with afterglow following. We’re working on plans for a Prior Friars musical contribution to the Glee Club concert.
